Victims of sexual abuse by priests urged fellow survivors Monday to enroll in a compensation program founded by Timothy Cardinal Dolan.
Phase II of the Independent Reconciliation and Compensation Program is open to anyone who has not previously reported a complaint of abuse to the Archdiocese.
Only victims abused by a deacon or priest in the Archdiocese of New York are eligible.
Applicants face a July 31 deadline.
“Your window of opportunity is only open until the end of July,” said Shaun Dougherty, 47, who was abused as a child by a priest in Pennsylvania.
“Protect future generations of children from having to live the nightmare that we lived again.”
