Handing the Shame Back
This channel is dedicated to all those brave fellow 'adult survivors of child sexual abuse'. You are not alone out there, you are believed and supported in finding your voice & handing the shame back to the abusers - where it belongs.
Handing the Shame Back is a New Zealand based charity, focused on preventing child sexual abuse through education and supporting adult survivors. Find out more about us and what we do: https://www.handingtheshameback.org
Each week, Handing the Shame Back will add a Survivor Interview, Tip for Survivors, or Blog to help support our community in finding their way to truth and freedom. Please feel free to reach out if you would also like to be a guest on the show.
Together, we can provide support and protect...
The children of yesterday, whose pain was silenced.
The children of today, who need our protection.
The children of tomorrow, who deserve a safer world.
From silence to action. From shame to strength.

Survivor Interview: Uipo Tagaloasa - Part 2
Uipo Tagaloasa Part 2
Was born and raised in Samoa without his father, who had passed away before he was born.
He has 11 siblings, and was raised by grandparents.
He was abused from the age of 9 by a really close family friend.
As he was working through his trauma, he considered shooting his abuser and then realised it would really only punish him and his family unnecessarily.
