A Support Group For Survivors of Clergy Sexual Abuse
Clergy sexual abuse has a devastating
impact on individuals and families causing psychological, spiritual and
physical harm. In an effort to help victim/survivors in their healing from
this painful experience, the Diocese of Oakland through the Outreach
Ministry to survivors of clergy sexual abuse offers support groups to adult
survivors of childhood sexual abuse.
