A next hopeful step for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse
501(c)(3) Approved
It's official.
After six months in process, More Truly Human Healing is an approved 501(c)(3) nonprofit.
The Invitation
Every survivor can have a next hopeful step identified.
And when obstacles come up, we're here to help look for a way forward.
Who we serve, what we do, and what changes
Who
Adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse
What
We fund a place in a program that supports everyday life
Outcome
You don't have to find the way between programs alone.
What we do
We help cover the cost of a next step, chosen by the survivor and their licensed provider.
Fund seats
We build a team of partners and seek grants to help fund a seat in a program.
Name a next step
We help adult survivors name a next hopeful step, and find a way toward it.
You choose
You and your licensed provider choose the program. When funds are available, we pay the licensed provider.
The Next Hopeful Step
Hope is practical.
The survivor and their licensed provider choose the step; we help make it possible. If obstacles come up, we'll help look for solutions.
What we don't do
Not a clinic
We don't provide treatment, diagnose, or take insurance.
Not a ministry
Our support doesn't require shared faith.
Not a crisis line
In an emergency, call 988 or your local emergency number.
We don't retain stories
Survivors' stories stay their own.
A day off in Zambia. An affogato. A book.
How this began
Thirteen years ago, as a young father doing missions in Zambia, Jediah Tanguay finally found the courage to open a book for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse.
What it planted
That afternoon is where this started. It didn't finish anything. It just named a next step. That's still what we do.
For Everyone
Support that doesn't require agreement.
Every person deserves dignity, a next step, and people who will stand with them. Some of us come to this from Christian faith. Others come from different places. What unites us is the practical hope that survivors should not face the cost of their next step alone.
Our Values
How we stand with survivors
Authenticity
We stop pretending.
Audacity
We risk being seen.
Generosity
We open our hands.
Grace
We stay soft when it would be easier to harden.
Empowerment
We slowly take our lives back.
