C.A.R.E., Inc.
C.A.R.E., Inc. is a national organization and strives to be informed of
the most recent developments in the treatment of ritual abuse. We believe
that one recent method showing the most promise for successful healing
involves intensive counseling (6-40 hrs per week). C.A.R.E. would like
to help with funds for clients who cannot afford the cost of intensive
therapy but who meet the specific criteria for this intensive work. When
survivors are able to heal from their abuse, many of them have been important
resources in helping other survivors heal and they become productive members
of society again. Healing needs to be made available for all socio-economic
groups. This website has great articles.

Mercy Ministries
Girls between the ages of 13 and 28 are admitted with such life-controlling
problems as drug and alcohol abuse, unplanned pregnancies, suicidal tendencies,
eating disorders, fear and depression, problems related to past abortions,
lesbianism, and physical and sexual abuse. Occasionally exceptions are
made concerning age requirement, and the length of stay is determined
case by case according to the severity of the problems. The average stay
is six months. Unplanned pregnancy is met with an in-depth program designed
to meet the needs of any young woman, regardless of age. Group classes
educate girls about options available to them and explore the pros and
cons of single parenting versus adoption. Each girl is allowed to make
her own decision about her baby. Adoption services, available through
Mercy Ministries of America's own adoption agency, are provided upon request.
If the choice is to parent the child, the girl receives special training
in health care, nutrition, parenting skills, child care, and domestic
training. To qualify, each girl must have a willing heart. Mercy Ministries
is provided free of charge, and girls come voluntarily because they have
a strong desire to change their lives. Mercy Ministries provides the opportunity
for that change by encouraging each girl to experience the love and forgiveness
of Jesus Christ. Mercy Ministries of America P.O. Box 111060 Nashville,

If
you are going to work with ritual abuse survivors, you must also get educated
if you want to be effective. And you must learn to be humble. Trauma survivors
do not need to be around ignorant, modern-day Pharisees. Survivors in
pain need people who will connect with them on an emotional level, get
right down in there where they are, and listen. --Kathleen Sullivan
