Adults Sexually Abused by Clergy Support Group Video Conference
Many people, both men and women, have been abused as adults. You are not alone, help is available. Abuse of adults is one of the biggest secrets beginning to come to light. Victims very often have hidden in the shadows, embarrassed, guilt-ridden, humiliated, and feeling somehow responsible. It's time to come forward to listen, to share if it helps, and to begin to heal.

SNAP Virtual Support Meetings for those abused as adults are held on:

The 1st SUNDAY of every month
Time: 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm Eastern Time

In April, the group will meet on 4-14-2024 at 3 PM Eastern Time instead of on the 1st Sunday. Meetings will resume as scheduled in May.

Contact Nancy Fratianni, 518-407-7487, [email protected], for more information.

The 3rd THURSDAY of every month
Time: 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm Pacific Time

Contact Dorothy Small, 530-908-3676, [email protected], for more information.

All participants must be interviewed by moderators previous to participation in this group. Video log in information is not publicly available.

Winter Appeal 2023

To our friends,

2023 has been a long year with many ups and downs for us all. As we close out the year, we at SNAP hope that you are feeling like you are on your way to being healthy, fulfilled, and happy. This past year has brought both successes and challenges. Thanks to the support you have shown in the past, we’ve been able to celebrate the good days and weather the stormy ones. Now, we are once again asking for your support as we work to support survivors new and old as we ‘Move SNAP Forward.’

At SNAP we are proud to have hosted a very well-attended conference in August 2023. This event allowed us to gather friends, survivors, advocates, and allies for a weekend of camaraderie and connection. We were so happy to be able to welcome many first-time attendees to gather in person and are already looking forward to the next conference.

To strengthen our movement for justice, healing, and prevention, SNAP will be expanding our peer support and providing more volunteer opportunities in the coming year. Through this great work, we are ensuring survivor voices are represented as we work for significant change that will benefit children and survivors.

Right now, survivors worldwide are getting the help they need from SNAP, and more and more reach out to us daily, but we need your help to keep those programs going and get our volunteers the training they need to thrive.

Your tax-deductible gift to SNAP can help offset the cost of our important mission. If you are not in a position to contribute, you can still support us by sharing this letter with those who can. As we continue to fight for survivors across the globe, your donation or sharing the great work SNAP does will help us continue our work to protect the vulnerable, heal the wounded, and prevent abuse.

Your donation ensures SNAP will be there for those who need us more than ever!

Warmly,

Michael W. McDonnell, C.P.S.

Interim Executive Director
