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

Rating: 5 stars  

This organization literally saved my life after my wife of over 17 years disclosed that she was a lesbian. The online support combined with the local group meetings were simply a lifesaver. No other group truly understands the emotional issues that arise from being married to a gay or lesbian who chooses to disclose later in life after being married. The emotional consequences and the fallout are hard to imagine. Families are destroyed. Self-esteem is wrecked. Even makes me question my own abilities to make sound decisions.

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

It could reach so many more people who find themselves in this situation: being married to someone gay or lesbian who discloses later in life.

When was your last experience with this nonprofit?

2009

Role:  Client Served & I am a recipient of the support group.
