MapYourVoice
MapYourVoice was founded by Jeni Ambrose, PhDc a trauma therapist who specializes in helping sexual violence survivors to recover. Her vision is to give every survivor worldwide a safe and therapeutic place to share their stories and access help within their local communities.
MapYourVoice is a free, anonymous service designed to bridge the gap between the 1.14 billion survivors worldwide that are silent and reclaiming life from sexual violence. Each assault reported receives a pinpoint on the map (randomly-placed within the area of the assault). The survivor retains control of what’s visible on the map and the public can witness and offer encouragement through ‘support buttons.’
When survivors map their voices, they gain the therapeutic benefit of telling, while also contributing as ‘co-researchers’ to problem-solving data that can support survivors and help end sexual violence. By speaking up on MapYourVoice, survivors empower others to share their stories and reclaim their voices. The viral impact of speaking out can change the world.
MapYourVoice is an initiative of Global Change Project: Strategic approaches to ending sexual violence worldwide and a U.S.-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. To map your voice, to support survivors, and other ways to get involved visit MapYourVoice.org.
