Stop the Violence Against Children! Join Us for a Benefit Performance

 

Few things are more sad than to know that an innocent child has been victimized by sexual violence. At age ten, Felix lost his innocence when a family member molested him at a birthday party. Felix is now a sad statistic of one in seven boys, under the age of 18, who have experienced sexual abuse. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reports that in 2017 there have been more than 200,000 reported cases of childhood abuse and molestation in New York State. Thousands more go unreported.  

 

One in five children in your community has been sexually traumatized. We also know that the effects of this experience are long-lasting. Many children who are abused turn to drugs, alcohol or even attempt suicide when they reach their teens.

 

Each year, WellLife Network helps young boys and girls – like Felix – to heal, recover and become survivors. As a WellLife Network supporter, you can help children and their families overcome their fears and horrific memories.

 

Join Us for a Benefit Performance of TRIAL

 

This March, we are sponsoring the highly acclaimed play called TRIAL, written by Ashley Griffin (The Greatest Showman, "Hamlet" in Hamlet) and directed by Lori Petty (Orange Is the New Black, Gotham). Trial will be performed on Thursday, March 28, 2019, 7:00 PM at the Tilles Center in Brookville, Long Island. Both Ashley and Lori are dedicated to educating the public about childhood sexual trauma. WellLife Network is proud and fortunate to partner with these and other outstanding performers in getting this vital message out to the community.

 

Your support helps WellLife Network to improve and expand its services across Long Island. The contribution you generously offer provides urgently needed services that help Long Islanders to heal and recover.
