We continuously strive to eradicate Military Sexual Trauma. This ongoing fight though daunting, is necessary, and we will continue to fight on until sexual
assaults are no more!!
* If you have been a victim of Sexual Assault and need someone to talk to. we hope you consider reaching out to Dr. Poe and or myself for advocacy support and at a minimum a listening ear.
