It’s the interview posted – 12/6/2012 Truth Be Told – Guests: Dr. Arlene Drake / David Pittman
It covers the topic of Childhood Sexual Abuse and while my segment is the last 15 minutes, I believe many will benefit by listening to the show in its entirety.
There is only one way to have a chance to better protect our children and better aid those in need of healing…we MUST work together to raise awareness and bring to light those guilty of abuse.
In 2006 David took the first step in acknowledging the sexual abuse that was perpetrated against him from the ages of 12 to 15. During those 3 years, the foundation his family had worked so hard to build within him was destroyed by one man, his youth minister. The result was his heart, mind and faith were lost. After having kept this secret for more than 25 years, he was finally able to reveal to his family and friends the reason behind the addiction and self-destruction that at times had him incarcerated, eventually left him destitute and nearly ended his life.
Fortunately he was blessed with amazing friends and a loving family who helped him get the help and therapy he so desperately needed. He was finally able to get clean from the grip of addiction and face the demon of sexual abuse that had clouded his life for so long. Now he and his wife work to aid their fellow survivors through the non-profit they created, Together We Heal.
The mission of Together We Heal is to provide guidance for survivors of childhood sexual abuse, educating parents and all adults through public speaking on matters concerning Childhood Sexual Abuse and giving a safe forum for victims of abuse to share, learn and heal.
