"Childhood Sexual Abuse (CSA) wounds the soul of a developing child." --Lori Hearn, M.S., Ebenezer Counseling
"This workshop was immensely helpful! Susan is an impassioned and gifted speaker. This issue is just too important not to speak out about. I would wholeheartedly recommend that you schedule her for this seminar. If one child in your area of influence will be spared this grief because of this workshop, then it will be more than worth it!" --Richard M. Elseroad, Senior Pastor, Grace Lutheran Church, Knoxville, TN (11/6/08 Workshop)
"As a father and a child advocacy volunteer, I feel the need as well as the responsibility, to learn everything available to me to protect and educate our children. Susan's class was well researched and passionately presented. I would encourage anyone who is given the opportunity to attend this class to do so as you may learn something that will save or prevent a child from suffering this abuse. Also, consider volunteering some of your time to help her in her mission to help all children." --Keith Black, Father, CASA Volunteer, Knoxville, TN (8/24/08 Workshop)
"The statistics presented at the workshop on child sexual abuse were startling. The workshop is concise and well done and provides a voice on a subject that needs both attention and dialogue." --David Allen, Knoxville, TN (6/22/08 Workshop)
“As a Preschool Director, it is crucial for me to provide pertinent and valuable training for my staff. Susan’s workshop definitely met all of my expectations. Her passion and enthusiasm kept the attention of teachers who had already worked an 8 hour day with preschoolers…that is not an easy task! --Janet Kite, Executive Director, Children’s Center of Knoxville, Inc., Knoxville, TN (6/2/08 Workshop)
"This workshop was excellent! We learned the signs to look for regarding the changes in a child’s behavior. The information was extremely valuable to a childcare worker such as myself. Working with very young children requires the knowledge of such a devastating occurrence in a child’s life. I commend Susan for her dedication and passion and on informing the public about this problem.” --Melinda Cloninger, Teacher, Children’s Center of Knoxville, Inc., Knoxville, TN (6/2/08 Workshop)
"The workshop that Susan presented to us was very helpful to me as a professional, working in childcare, and also spoke to me personally. Susan gave me a lot of support by telling her own story and the story of others. She helped me to see how prevalent the problem is (more so that I thought) and gave some valuable ideas of how to deal with children that have been victims.” --Shanda O’Neil, Teacher, Children’s Center of Knoxville, Inc., Knoxville, TN (6/2/08 Workshop)
