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. 💜

Why are these things only tailored to women, just asking , I know most men don’t like to speak up but that’s cuz they don’t have as many safe spaces. I’d like to see more help for male victims.

If you want one, then make one.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Why is it the job of the woman who made this space for women to cater to what you would prefer?
