Did you know that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 6 men experience sexual assault in their lifetime? At C4, we're committed to supporting survivors through our STARS (Sexual Trauma Recovery Therapy) program, providing specialized therapy tailored to their needs.

STARS offers a safe space for survivors to heal, rebuild trust, and reclaim their lives. With 90% of survivors experiencing symptoms of PTSD, and 33% experiencing suicidal ideation, programs like STARS are crucial for their recovery journey.

Knitting has therapeutic benefits proven to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression—providing survivors with a soothing outlet for their emotions.

C4 clinicians and survivors come together to knit scarves, offering a small yet powerful symbol of support and comfort during the journey of healing. In the face of pain, these scarves serve as a reminder that no survivor walks alone. Your donation to our fundraiser helps sustain programs like STARS (Sexual Trauma Recovery Therapy) which provide essential support to survivors. Let's stitch together hope and resilience

Your donation will help to buy much needed supplies and support us in creating a safe space for survivors to come together, knit, and share stories of strength and resilience. Join us in making a difference and showing solidarity with survivors.

Donate today and be a part of the movement for change. #SAAM #SupportSurvivors #AlliesInAction
