What We Believe

Breaking the Cycle Creed

We come together as a group to extend the hand of friendship, understanding and compassion. We do not to judge or condemn.

We believe that lasting healing is found in relationships with our peers who have experiences similar to our own.

Our goal is to better understand ourselves and others with the aid of our fellow members.


We know that there is always someone willing to listen and help.

We recognize that we do need help, that we have all been affected by sexual trauma.


We understand that there is no miracle answer or rapid change, it has taken time for us to get this way and it will take time to overcome.

We accept that we are human, we will backslide, at times. The journey to healing is different for everyone.

We remember to have patience with ourselves, taking each day as it comes.

We are committed to being the best person we can be and living well in spite of the trauma that has affected our lives.
