Handing the Shame Back
This channel is dedicated to all those brave fellow 'adult survivors of child sexual abuse'. You are not alone out there, you are believed and supported in finding your voice & handing the shame back to the abusers - where it belongs.
Handing the Shame Back is a New Zealand based charity, focused on preventing child sexual abuse through education and supporting adult survivors. Find out more about us and what we do: https://www.handingtheshameback.org
Each week, Handing the Shame Back will add a Survivor Interview, Tip for Survivors, or Blog to help support our community in finding their way to truth and freedom. Please feel free to reach out if you would also like to be a guest on the show.
Together, we can provide support and protect...
The children of yesterday, whose pain was silenced.
The children of today, who need our protection.
The children of tomorrow, who deserve a safer world.
From silence to action. From shame to strength.

Meet Jay Sefton
Survivor. Mental Health Counsellor. Actor. Playwright.
Jay was chosen to play “Jesus” in the Passion Play by a priest in the catholic church. He was 13 years old.
He was so thrilled to be selected, as he always wanted to be an actor. What was to follow were years of sexual abuse from this priest which took place not only within the vestibule but also on camping and ski trips.
Jay is now a renowned playwright and actor. If you’d like to connect with him or see his latest play called Unrecognised, visit his website at https://www.unreconciledtheplay.com/, or follow him on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/unreconciledtheplay/. Alternatively, you can email him at unreconciled@gmail.com.
