Synopsis

I was twelve-years-old when my life was stolen. I can recall becoming a helpless victim of sexual abuse. The abuse continued for three years. I was forced to see him every day, until one day he disappeared, leaving me with nothing but shattered dreams and scars that bled hopelessness, suicide, and shame. Forced to bear the burden alone, I struggled with trying to find who I was and why he chose me.

Scrapes and Scars chronicle the unapologetic story of my journey to overcome the agony and devastation of a horrifying childhood experience. One that was meant to cripple and challenge my very being for life, but I learned that obstacles and trials were meant to be defeated. Through this journey, you too will learn that the scrapes and scars of your past do not define you; your ability to overcome them does.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Chavonne is a volunteer appointed by a judge to advocate for abused and neglected children who have been displaced from their homes living in foster or group homes. For many abused children the advocate will be that constant person in his or her life. Before moving to Philadelphia, Chavonne volunteered as a court advocate and regional hospital accompanied team member for sexual abuse and domestic violence women in Virginia, where she was a juvenile correctional officer. Chavonne has a passion for giving a voice to childhood trauma while helping children deal with their traumas so they won't continue to be labeled as troubled. She also has a desire for helping women overcome their traumas so they can continue to rise up great children. Many people always wonder why children do some of the bad things like rob, steal, or hurt people but no one asks the question of what happened to them to make them do such a thing. She currently is a mobile therapist who provides intensive therapeutic services to children with Autism Spectrum disorder and/or other behavioral disorders. She also works as a substitute teacher. Chavonne grew up in Philadelphia, PA. She received her B.S. in criminal justice and M.A. in marriage and family counseling from Liberty University.
