Review for Straight Spouse Network Inc, Chicago, IL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

What a blessing and a life saver... to have finally found an organization of people who understand the trauma I experienced when after 23 years of marriage, my husband came out to me. I spent several years trapped in my husband's closet with him, and only upon finding the Straight Spouse Network in 2003, was I able to see my way ahead. From others experiences I was able to understand that I was not the only person that this had happened to. From on-line support to face to face meetings, I have met many kindred spirits, many who have become life long friends. I am forever grateful to SSN for helping me. I now try to help others thru face to face meetings and as well as online.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

how it helps people to help themselves

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

figure out how to help even more people.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

meeting other people

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

caring, concerned and dedicated.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

help some many families who experience the trauma of a gay or lesbian spouse

Ways to make it better...

I had only found SSN sooner in my journey.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

raising enough money.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009
