YoungLife Survivors: How @metooyounglife is Addressing the Abuse Within the YL Ministry - Ep. 52

TW: SA, purity culture, sexual harassment, religious trauma, homophobia, anxiety 


This week we have Erin (she/her) of @metooyounglife on the podcast to talk about the abuse that has run rampant within the YoungLife ministry. We also talk about reporting and abuse in general, how society ignores survivors, and how the church’s systemic sexism and purity culture prevents accountability. 


If you want to support the survivors of YoungLife and the Me Too Younglife movement, follow them at @metooyounglife. And you can also follow Erin on IG & Tik Tok at @watttsie ! Additionally, regarding the lawsuit, if you are someone who has personally experienced gender-based harassment in YoungLife, please contact Erin as well so you can get connected with the lawyers involved in the lawsuit! 


I also mention some resources for sexual assault and abuse which you can find on mindfulmindspod.com under “Resources.”
