Does the Child Victim's Act apply to me?
The simple answer is that we do not know. We can tell you more about our personal experience as victims/survivors of childhood sexual abuse and advocates who have spoken up and sought accountability and justice.
Some things for survivors considering legal action to think about:
Research other cases and the attorneys who have handled them.
Speak to other survivors or members of organizations that provide help to survivors and a certified, professional therapist whom you trust.
Interview attorneys carefully.
Only make decisions that you are comfortable with.
When you were sexually abused as a child you didn't have a choice but now as an adult you have a chance to exercise your discretion and use your voice.
