Her message to our Survivors:

When Jessa came to know about our initiative of collecting Rebirth Stories to inspire our survivors, she had the below message for our survivors to inspire them to write their own #RebirthStory.

“Your past does not need to define your future.
Even when the darkness is deep — hope, healing and restoration is possible.
I believe in you!”

Kshamata empowers survivors of exploitation to reintegrate into society as dignified, positive and productive participants.

Want to help too? If you’ve been through something drastic and have managed to get back to a happy life, share your #RebirthStory with Kshamata women and join their ‘In Me, I Believe’ model. While they help survivors believe in themselves, we can help survivors believe in a better tomorrow.
