Welcome to My Story, My Terms, a starting point for changing the conversation on gender-based violence – on campuses, in workplaces, and in public and private life. We are empowering survivors with the tools they need to lead with their own voices and define their own healing journeys, and advocate for better laws and policies.

Hear from our participants.
“For me, participating in My Story, My Terms, was like being thrown a lifeline in the middle of processing and healing from sexual trauma. Each week I looked forward to working with a group of highly trained individuals who helped me write and speak candidly about my experience. I felt so supported and cared for at NOW and it helped me gain a better perspective on the injustices that took place during and after my abuse. The storytelling workshop was such a wonderful gift, and I would give it 100 times over if I could.” – M.H.
