Since 1982, the Daughter's of Lot has provided, through Samaritan Counseling and Growth, the resources to help children and adults overcome the trauma and pain of abuse.
"I felt like I died inside after being sexually abused," stated the young women, whose wet Kleenex now covered her face. "If I had not had my counselor to talk with, I don't think I would have wanted to live." The National Institute for Justice reports that 1 out of 5 girls and 1 out of 20 boys report sexual abuse. They also indicated that 3 out of every 4 adolescents sexually assaulted, were victimized by someone they knew well. The money Samaritan raises from this two-hour Daughter's of Lot breakfast event provides quality counseling restricted to victims of sexual or physical abuse. The Daughter's of Lot Breakfast event takes place every year in February.
