More on: Survivor Advocacy

The podcast episodes provided explore various facets of survivor advocacy, highlighting the experiences and efforts of individuals who have survived traumatic events such as cyberstalking, domestic violence, sexual assault, and institutional failures.

The episodes showcase how survivors have turned to social media, the legal system, and community-based initiatives to raise awareness, seek justice, and advocate for systemic changes to better support and protect victims. Examples include Jessica Pauley's survivors raising awareness, Tara Newell advocating for ethical treatment of survivors, and Cathy de Bono's efforts to keep a serial predator incarcerated.

Survivor advocacy is also demonstrated through the stories of individuals like Jennifer Khalifa, who transitioned from being a survivor to a prevention and policy advocate, and Christine Blasey Ford, who testified against a Supreme Court nominee and gave voice to other survivors of sexual assault.
