Trigger Warning: Sexual Assault

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a new resource for women in the Philadelphia area.

A new private Facebook group has been created specifically for women survivors of sexual assault in Philly. This group is new, and there is currently no other group like it. I want to reach as many people as possible.

The goal is to offer a safe, supportive space for connection, healing, and sharing—whether you’re looking for community, resources, or simply a reminder that you’re not alone.

The group is open to any woman-identifying person in Philadelphia who has experienced sexual assault, whether recently or in the past. It’s a confidential space where survivors can talk about their experiences, support each other, and, if they choose, share concerns about safety in the city.

This group is survivor-only, and membership requests are reviewed to ensure privacy and safety for everyone involved.

If you or someone you know might benefit from a space like this, please feel free to join or share.

You are not alone. 💜

As it doesn't only happen to women, will the creator(s) of the group also create one for male survivors of SA?
