SUMMARY:Book Club: What is a Girl Worth? by Rachael Denhollander
DESCRIPTION:Join us and discuss the book “What is a Girl Worth?” by Rachael Denhollander in honor of Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month. \nRachael Denhollander’s voice was heard around the world when she spoke out to end the most shocking USA gymnastics scandal in history. The first victim to publicly accuse Larry Nassar\, the former USA Gymnastics team doctor who sexually abused hundreds of young athletes\, Rachael now reveals her full story for the first time. How did Nassar get away with it for so long? How did Rachael and the other survivors finally stop him and bring him to justice? And how can we protect the vulnerable in our own families\, churches\, and communities? \nLight refreshments will be provided.

SUMMARY:BCAT Quarterly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:For our January Quarterly Meeting\, Dr. Heather Evans will present “The Voices of Survivors Project.” This project is a platform for survivors of human sex trafficking or other forms of violence to express their lived experiences as survivors through photography. The photos on display come from a dissertation study conducted to directly highlight the voices of survivors and their expressed experiences\, especially after separation from the trafficker. Dr.  Evans explains: “As we seek to find the most helpful intervention\, it seems responsible to consult with and learn from our greatest teachers\, those who directly experienced this complex form of victimization.”
