In this podcast, we explore the devastating impact of sexual abuse and exploitation in religious institutions, including recent cases like the bankruptcy case of the Boy Scouts of America, and how it has brought to light the systemic sexual abuse of minors by the BSA, and the role of sponsoring religious organizations in the perpetuation of this abuse. It serves as a stark reminder of the need to hold religious organizations accountable for their actions and to protect victims from further harm. More importantly will be discussing how sponsoring religious organizations allowed sexual abuse to occur and the sources and methods used to conceal sexual abuse.
We dive into the legal and ethical dilemmas surrounding clergy reporting laws, statutory limitations, and the responsibility of religious organizations to hold their leaders, members, and employees accountable for their actions. We will be speaking to experts and survivors and examine the psychological, social, and emotional harm caused by religious abuse.
Join us on this journey as we unravel the hidden truths behind the façade of religious institutions and discover the untold stories of those who have suffered in silence.
