Survivors Connect Network We are sisters and survivors. Nothing will break the bonds between us. We are Survivors Connect Network

Welcome to Survivors Connect Network!

Welcome to Survivors Connect Network, a private online meeting place for survivors of prostitution and sex trafficking.   This is a space where survivors can come together to communicate, share, network and get the resources we need to help ourselves and each other, like the band of sisters we are.

When we act together it is much easier for us to speak the truth about the sex industry.    We no longer have to do it alone.  If we join voices, we're stronger and harder to ignore.  It's time for us to lead the anti-CSE movement and speak for ourselves. Here's what fellow survivors have to say:

They kept me vulnerable with other girls who barely spoke English, but our tears of both sadness and hope became our new language.  -- Chong Kim

I think we will push an open door if we speak the reality of prostitution, especially if we focus on it being a human rights issue first and foremost.  It is so important that we start striking out on our own, not always waiting for the movement to catch up with our passion and the urgent need for survivors to have some leadership.   --Rebecca Mott

Together we are stronger. It is so easy to feel hopeless and overwhelmed with it all on your own.   -- Angel K

We are leaders in our own right.  Our voices have power.  We're strong and smart and we're here for each other. We won't let anything break the ties that bind us. We protect each other. 

Our network is the opposite of exploitation.  There's no leader and everyone has equal rank.  We vote to decide what we do as a group.  Everything we contribute to this network belongs to us alone.  We are in control at last.

We'd love it if you'd join us.  If you're interested please email Stella Marr or Aashika Damodar and tell us a bit about yourself and provide a phone number (if possible).  We screen so no pimps or johns can get into our network.  We can't wait to meet you. 

In sisterhood and love,

Stella Marr & Aashika Damodar

This network was inspired by all the survivors we've known and the courageous Aboriginal Women's Action Network.
