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.

Global Awareness Day 2026 | Sunday 14 June
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Every year, we come together on Global Awareness Day to raise awareness of child sexual abuse, share ways to prevent it, and honour adult survivors, including those who didn’t make it.
This is a global silent epidemic. It's up to all of us, as a community, to shift the silence.
Wherever you are in the world, we invite you to take part in three simple but powerful ways:
❤️ Join us for a 30-minute walk at 10am your local time, wearing red, white, and black to honour this cause.
❤️ Swap your profile picture with the Handing the Shame Back logo to raise awareness.
❤️ Share the Global Hand Sign for U16s, a non-verbal way for children to signal they are being sexually abused and are not safe, with at least one other person.
If you are in Auckland, New Zealand, we invite you to join our team for a 30-minute walk followed by a BBQ at One Tree Hill Domain on Sunday 14 June at 10am. We will meet on the field by the playground.
Bring your family, friends, and even your fur babies. Everyone is welcome! Mark your calendar now:
