MARIA GORETTI NETWORK

The MGN was founded in 2004 by Catholic survivors of sexual abuse. We are a 501(c)(3) faith-based, non-profit, self-help support network for victims of all abuse of any faith.

All victims of abuse need love and support.

It doesn’t matter if the abuse was physical, sexual, emotional, spiritual or mental.

It does not matter who the abuser was, whether it was a relative, a friend, a spouse, a minister, a priest, a nun, a rabbi, a teacher, a coach, or a stranger, we welcome you.

We are survivors and friends of survivors who understand the need to experience the healing power of Jesus Christ.

We are not after money. Money is irrelevant when your soul has been destroyed.

We are not out for revenge. We have found that the hate and anger towards those who harmed us prevents us from a full recovery. We leave vengeance to God.

Our sole interest is in helping our brothers and sisters experience healing in God’s love.
