The majority of the resources that follow were provided by one of our Survivor Advisors, Jennifer. She offers them as a way for you to understand you are not alone and that there is hope. We are always looking for additional resources for survivors. If you have found any that are particularly helpful, please contact us at eyesupappalachia@yahoo.com and we will share them here.
