In this enlightening episode of SCAN (Stop Child Abuse Now), we hear the compelling story of Rachel Marietta, a new member of the NAASCA family from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Hosted by John Anderson and co-hosted by Carol, the episode delves into Rachel's harrowing past of abuse and her journey towards healing and hope. Rachel bravely recounts her experiences, starting with her first abuser, her mother, who inflicted physical and sexual abuse on her through her formative years.

Rachel's narrative is set against the backdrop of NAASCA's mission to address issues related to child abuse and trauma.

This aspect of her story underscores the systemic challenges faced by survivors seeking justice and protection for their children. Despite these obstacles, Rachel's message is one of hope and empowerment.
She emphasizes the importance of finding a higher power and reaching out for support as crucial steps in the healing process.
