Volunteer for Saprea

Eliminating child sexual abuse will only be possible with help from volunteers who are passionate about our cause. If you or your group are committed to liberating individuals and society from child sexual abuse and its impacts, we want your help.

Teach Your community With Our Support

No child should endure the trauma of sexual abuse, and no survivor should silently suffer from its long-term impacts. We advocate for open, honest discussions around this difficult issue to help raise awareness and reduce stigma. With clinically proven tools and resources, Saprea empowers survivors, parents, and community members with the knowledge needed to protect, heal, and overcome.

Start or Join a Saprea
Support Group

Saprea created support groups because a safe community has been shown to be a powerful tool in the healing process. While we created the curriculum for the groups, each individual group is formed and led by a survivor in their own communities or online. The materials and practices used in the groups are clinically reviewed and evidence based. Saprea Support Groups are provided at no cost to participants.

Are You a Survivor Looking for a Healing Community?

You can connect with a new avenue of healing and help to bring these healing resources to other survivors in your community—in person or online. Find a support group near you. Saprea Support Groups are led by survivors for survivors.

Are You a Supporter Looking to Connect with Survivors?

Below are a few suggestions of how to bring Saprea Support Groups to the survivors in your life.

  • Tell survivors about this free resource. They can start a group or join an existing group.
  • Share about Saprea Support Groups on social platforms.
  • Help a survivor, interested in starting a group, find a location or an online platform and help them promote
    the group at their direction. Find a support group near you.

Attend one of our monthly Saprea Support Group interest meetings to learn more and talk with a Saprea representative. These meetings provide valuable overview information as well as allow you to ask any questions you have.

J’Lene is an amazing supporter through Facebook.

She frequently post about Saprea to help her friends and community connect with healing resources. Whether she is spotlighting our volunteer needs or sharing one of our videos, J’Lene has been the catalyst for many women finding healing resources by attending the Saprea Retreat.

“It only takes a few seconds or minutes to share a post(s) on social media, but it can be a life-changing moment for a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. You never know who needs to hear or see that message.
It can mean all the difference in the world for the person who sees it or for someone they care about.”

Host a kintsugi workshop

Kintsugi classes have been an integral part of our healing retreats since the very beginning. Kintsugi is the Japanese philosophy that the value of an object is not in its perfection, but in its history and resilience. Hosting a Kintsugi Workshop as a fundraiser is an amazing way to support survivors at retreat and inspire your community through a hands-on project and discussions of patience, compassion, and healing.
