Rape in AA: Breaking the Silence and Seeking Justice

Did you go to the police and were charges made and was he arrested? We need to talk about this. I know it is embarrassing to say you were once in AA or are still in AA....but please think about saving another life and stop rapes in AA.
Imagine seeking support for your alcohol dependency only to face the horror of sexual assault within a supposed safe haven. This episode of 'Safe Recovery' tackles the harrowing issue of rape in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Host Monica Richardson calls on survivors to bravely come forward and report their experiences, emphasizing that speaking out can save lives and prevent future harm.
She acknowledges the deep embarrassment and stigma that often accompany these traumatic experiences but stresses the importance of breaking the silence for the greater good. Monica doesn't hold back in addressing the cult-like culture that can pervade AA meetings, creating an environment where predatory behavior goes unchecked. She advocates for alternative healing approaches that empower individuals rather than making them feel powerless.
The conversation is raw and unfiltered, shining a light on a dark corner of the recovery world that desperately needs attention. If you've ever felt uneasy in traditional recovery settings or are curious about different paths to healing, this episode offers valuable insights. It's not just about exposing the dangers but also about finding ways to rebuild and recover in safer, more supportive environments.
