Victim Statements

Voices Deserve to be Heard

The statements shared here are the lived experiences of survivors—testimonies that have too often been silenced by shame, fear, or legal barriers. These courageous voices break through the silence to reveal truths that need to be spoken and heard. By sharing their stories, survivors reclaim power, dignity, and agency, offering insight into the real and lasting impact of abuse. We invite you to read these statements with compassion and respect, and to honour the strength it takes to speak out. Their courage drives the heart of The Restitution Project’s work and calls us all to listen, to witness, and to act.
