April is Sexual Abuse Awareness month, and in recognition of this campaign to raise public awareness about sexual assault and educate communities and individuals on how to prevent sexual violence, Bookshop Santa Cruz is joining with the Survivors Healing Center of the Central Coast, and local author Emalou King.
In her book, Under My Roof: A Mother's Story of the Heinous Crime of Incest, King shares her story of when she started over out West, keeping family secrets from friends, clients, and colleagues because of shame and embarrassment. In her quest for healing and understanding, King became dedicated to telling her story, and continuing the pursuit of truth, justice, advocacy and education in the prevention of child sexual abuse.
At Bookshop’s event, Ms. King will read from her book and, following that, there will be a facilitated discussion with staff from the Survivors Healing Center.
Royalties from books sales sold that evening will be donated back to the Survivors Healing Center.
