Publisher's Summary

Survivor on Set: The Aftermath of Sexual Abuse Book 1: Survivors Have Special Needs: On Set is a brief but detailed non-fiction manual to help Film & TV producers, cast & crew get a better understanding of what its like to be a sexual abuse survivor on set & provides helpful tips & suggestions on things you can do to help create a more supportive safe space for your actors who may struggle with what we call survivor moments when everyone else is okay. We have quotes from anonymous, anonymous actress & anonymous actor speaking from real life experience.

While there are surely a plethora of other experiences to share, this mini book serves as a beginners guide to understanding a survivors plight & shares what YOU can do to HELP, on set. These little basic things may make a big difference in the life of someone you would least expect is a survivor of horrific sexual abuse. Remember, you're dealing with actors & actors mask well. But its okay to take off the mask & ask for help. So we not only provide tips for what others can do to help survivors but a few things the actor survivor can do to help themselves.

There are some things you may not have thought of that you can start to implement right away. Whether you realize you're working with a survivor or not, there are things you can keep your eyes open for to help make sure they're OK.
