For adult survivors of clergy abuse, the harm does not end when the abuse does. It lives in the body, in the mind, and in the soul, reshaping who a person understands themselves to be and leaving their relationships with God, their faith, and loved ones forever changed. This presentation listens closely to survivors’ own words to understand what clergy abuse actually takes from victims, and what it means for all of us: survivors, those who love them, and those called to serve them, to truly see that harm and respond with better understanding, compassion, and accountability.
Presenting at this webinar is Dr. Lucy Huh, a Catholic scholar and advocate whose research examines the harm clergy sexual abuse inflicts on adult victims. She earned her Ph.D. from the Diana R. Garland School of Social Work at Baylor University and has presented her research internationally, including at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome. She serves on the Board of Directors at Awake and the North American Association of Christians in Social Work (NACSW), and her scholarship and commentary have appeared in outlets including America Magazine and The National Catholic Reporter.
