The Attorney General’s grand jury report on abuse in the Altoona-Johnstown Diocese has Pennsylvania abuse advocates, survivors, and lawmakers calling for statute of limitations reform.
An area woman, who is a survivor of abuse, will share her story at a rally in Harrisburg on Monday. She’s speaking in support of two bills currently awaiting house approval.
28 years ago, Brenda Dick’s life changed, forever.
“I was raped from the time I was 5 and touched clear up until I was 12, almost 13,” remembered Brenda.
Now, Brenda is sharing her story with others, hoping for change. She started an online petition to end the statute of limitations for child abuse victims in Pennsylvania.
