I am the Chairperson of this fabulous organisation, we do so much good work with so few resources. Please come along to our birthday fundraiser.
Tickets: https://events.humanitix.com/no-laughing-matter-s-event-for-stepping-out-s-40th-anniversary
Stepping Out: Forty years of showing up - please help us keep going!
More than 1 in 3 Australian women experienced child sexual abuse before the age of 18—most at the hands of someone they knew. For many women, particularly those who grew up in eras when abuse was disbelieved or silenced, the impacts become entrenched over decades and they live with complex PTSD.
For 40 years, Stepping Out has supported female survivors of child sexual abuse through free, trauma-informed programs grounded in clinical expertise, lived experience, and peer connection. Our work sits at the intersection of therapeutic care and community—because complex trauma requires both.
We specialise in working with women who are too often left out of the conversation, and we do it on the smell of an oily rag. CSA has been taboo for generations, and services like ours survive because people like you choose to show up.
Please join us on 5 March at Petersham Bowling Club to help us continue our work.
Food and drink available for purchase at the bar.
Tickets are $40 and contribute directly to Stepping Out programs. Feel free to share amongst your networks.
