Story here.

Men united for a just cause....another vital move in the right direction. The more we speak, the more people will listen. The MRA movement is gaining momentum. Let's be positive! Excerpt:

"CHARLESTON - Properly identifying and providing services to male victims of domestic violence and sexual assault will be the focus of a day-long conference next week in Charleston.

In observance of National Crime Victims Right's Week, a coalition of survivor support and political action groups, in conjunction with the U. S. Department of Justice's Office for Victims of Crime, are sponsoring "Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault: Not Just Problems for Women."

Sounds like it will be a fantastic event!!

We need events like this all over the free world in every Country, State/Province/territory, and city. We need to change the curriculum in schools to include an acknowledgment of men and boys as victims and that violence and sexual abuse is a HUMAN problem not strictly a "Women's Issue"

Congratulations to all involved in organizing and putting on this event, your work is desperately needed and is beneficial everyone and may be the one voice of help to to so many ubheard victims.
