Adult Incest Survivors
Adults who, as children, were subjected to sexual abuse or exploitation by a parent, guardian or other family or extended family member whom the child trusted, and who are dealing with the traumatic effects of the experience in their adult lives. Sexual abuse includes any form of sexual activity imposed upon a child, regardless of the child's cooperation, from lewd remarks or voyeurism to fondling, oral copulation, sodomy or rape.
