Thank you so much for that question. I think that's really important, recognizing the underground or informal supports that exist. A lot of our work is building the capacity for what is considered informal support but is often very crucial support, because it's a first step, maybe, to accessing more formalized supports or making decisions. Survivors can then make choices around the formalized supports they want to access.
I think that begins with working with communities around this issue. That engages community members. It also engages the faith community, faith leaders, recognizing that people have a responsibility and role to play that is proactive, and provides them with the knowledge and tools and equips them with the ability to play that role.
In our work, too, what I see is that a lot of it is challenging norms and building the capacity for community support, because a lot of times that underground or informal support.... It's important and it exists, but they may feel like they're in the minority. How do you shift that so that it becomes the majority within the community and where that voice becomes a dominant voice and is one that informs or creates that space for survivors to know that we have a caring community? These are the values that we uphold and address, so I think that's what a lot of our work.... I think those values are there. It's just amplifying those values, making space for those values and giving them the support they need.
