Donate

Hello there,

In our day to day operations we see up to 50 people through our service, accessing support for mental health and childhood trauma, as well as some just needing a shower and some breakfast and conversation.

If you would like to make a donation to support us, no matter how big or small it’s always appreciated. With any donations received we ensure every dollar goes directly to the people we support in our community. This would include helping to supply a hot breakfast, coffees, toiletries or a pair of socks to keep someone warm.

If you wish to do so the details are

Thank you from the Male Room team.

Thriving, just not just surviving: The experiences of male survivors of historical sexual abuse in Aotearoa / New Zealand. Part 2: Peer support as a pathway forward

The Ministry of Social Development commissioned Tautoko Tāne Aotearoa (Formerly Male Survivors Aotearoa) to conduct research into the experiences of male survivors of sexual abuse. Tautoko Tāne Aotearoa comprises 11 member organisations throughout Aotearoa/New Zealand. Tautoko Tāne Aotearoa is dedicated to supporting male survivors of, usually historical, sexual abuse.

Central to Tautoko Tāne Aotearoa’s operations is the provision of peer support. Peer support is based on the belief that people who have faced, endured, and overcome adversity can offer useful support, encouragement and hope to others facing similar situations.

This report overviews the last in a suite of projects looking at the needs, experiences and support options for male survivors of sexual abuse, with an emphasis on peer support.
