Regarding This Event

Theresa Bowe, a luxury realtor, author, philanthropist, and CEO of the 82 Ways foundation, which houses Heels and Motivation and The Don’T Touch Me Movement, serves as the program’s host.

One in ten children are victims of sexual assault or abuse by an adult. Because of fear, trauma, or shame, most people who survived child abuse frequently find it difficult to share their experiences. As a voice against child abuse, I want to foster a secure environment where those who have experienced it can feel empowered to let go of their guilt and connect with others who have experienced it. Others can find freedom and healing via our tales. Although the past cannot be changed, there is something special we can do to positively affect the lives of numerous youngsters.

We want to celebrate you and your survival story at this free event in honour of National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Come take part in the shaping of history. Embrace those who overcame child abuse together. Find the support, healing, and new connections you need to transform your suffering into something meaningful.

There will be free food and drinks available.

On Sunday, April 10th at the Forum Aventura from 5pm – 8pm in Miami, Florida, Theresa Bowe, an author, philanthropist, luxury realtor, and the Founder of Don’t Touch Me will host a free event in celebration of National Child Abuse Prevention Month. Inviting the community to be a part of history in the making and to lock arms with others who have overcome child abuse to find healing, new relationships, and support that will help turn pain into purpose.

1 in 10 children experiences sexual abuse or assault at the hands of an adult. Most individuals who have experienced child abuse struggle with sharing their stories because of fear, trauma, or shame. As a voice against child abuse, Theresa is creating a safe space for survivors to feel empowered, release their shame, and connect with others who share similar stories. Our stories have the power to bring healing and freedom to others.
