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

Rating: 5 stars  

I was devastated after I found out my husband of 17 years was gay. It never occured to me there were so many others in the same situation until I stumbled across SSN. The shared experiences, friendship and understanding from this online community literally saved my life.

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

the eyes of those who finally meet someone who understands exactly what they are going through.

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

try to increase visibility so it is easier to find and no one has to go through this trauma on their own.

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

meeting the many people in this organization and also in directing others to SSN knowing they will find the help they need to cope with the trauma.

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

amazing, kind, loving, understanding, compassionate, funny, wonderful. :)

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

increase visiblity and hire people needed to reach all those who need to find us.

Ways to make it better...

I had found SSN faster.

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

Financing to increase visibility.

One thing I'd also say is that...

SSN saved my life and introduced me to people I will forever consider my family.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Client Served & and now try to pay it forward and help others.
