As a survivor of sexual abuse, Diana was diagnosed with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, a mental health disorder triggered by a traumatic event, with symptoms that can last a lifetime. She did not feel safe in her own home. At 11 years old, Diana started sleeping with her mom and needed to know where she was at all times. Her mom immediately started seeking support for her through local community organizations and found Cor Defense.

Diana has been training with us for over a year and has experienced dramatic changes. Her mom shares that she sleeps in her own room now, and does not need to know where her mom is at all times. Her ability to focus in class has improved, and Diana reports feeling strong, confident, and powerful due to Cor Defense. She is currently testing out of PTSD symptoms - meaning, she is not experiencing them on a day to day basis.
During Diana’s post-training survey, she reported a 40% increase in her ability to problem-solve and a 30% increase in her ability to self-regulate. We are honored to be part of Diana’s healing journey, and cannot wait to help other survivors of sexual violence access their resiliency, power, and courage through defense training. Join us - your business sponsorship will directly impact survivors of sexual and domestic violence on their healing journey!
