SNAP Sendai Calls for Apology from Archdiocese of Nagasaki
SNAP Sendai has learned about harassment from church officials at the Archdiocese of Nagasaki and are now calling for a public apology.
“The counselor room manager of the Archdiocese of Nagasaki responded sincerely to the victims,” said Harumi Suzuki, Leader of SNAP Sendai. “Archbishop Nagasaki added serious power harassment to the counselor room manager until she was unable to work.”
Now, SNAP Sendai is calling for the Archbishop of Nagasaki to apologize for his treatment of the counseling manager and reaffirm his commitment to the proper treatment of survivors.
“Archbishop Nagasaki should deeply regret the power harassment he added to counselor room manager in the Archdiocese and seriously apologize to her,” said Suzuki. “Attacking those who defend the victims is an embarrassing act as the Archbishop and is humanely unacceptable.”

「長崎の大司教区相談室室長は、被害者に誠実に対応してくれました。」とSNAP Sendaiのリーダーの鈴木ハルミは言いました。
長崎大司教は相談室室長に対して、彼女が働けなくなるまで深刻なパワーハラスメントを加えました。
現在、SNAP Sendaiは長崎の大司教に相談室室長の扱いについて謝罪し、被害者の適切な扱いに対する彼の責任を再確認することを求めています。
長崎大司教は、彼が大司教区の相談室室長に加えたパワーハラスメントを深く反省し、真摯に彼女に謝罪するべきです。
被害者を守る者を攻撃することは、大司教として恥ずかしい行為であり、人道的に容認できません。

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
