This is the story of those who survived. We were raised in an environment where power was misused, abuse was hidden, and fear kept many silent. As survivors of Grace Valley Christian Center, we are coming together to support one another, speak our truth, and seek accountability. Our mission is to help end cycles of trauma, protect children, and ensure that future generations are not subjected to the same harm.
