Review for Victim Service Center Of Central Florida Inc, Orlando, FL, USA
Before I joined the Board, I had the privilege of attending their annual gala, where I met many of the therapists and individuals who support the organization. One of the therapists gave me their contact information and encouraged me to reach out if I ever needed to connect with someone at the organization. Until then, I had never knowingly met a sexual assault survivor. Just three weeks later, someone confided in me about their recent trauma. With their permission, I immediately contacted the therapist, who connected them with all the necessary resources. That individual has since overcome the incident but might never have sought help without that connection. The way everything aligned felt like a sign, and I took it as a cue to accept the position on the board that was offered to me.
