How can you support a survivor of abuse?
🔥 Don't say why did you wait so long to leave?
🔥 Why didn't you just leave?
🔥 Why didn't you report it to the police?
These are some of the negative things that survivors are told. What can you say or do instead?
💗 Listen without judgment.
💗 Validate the survivor's story.
💗 Remind the survivor they did not deserve it and they are worthy of love!
