Peer-to-peer support
#NotYourPorn has learnt how crucial it is for image-based abuse survivors’ healing to have support from people who understand their experiences. For this reason, we started our peer-to-peer support service.
What is peer-to-peer support?
#NotYourPorn provides informal calls normally via the phone but sometimes on video call to adult survivors of image-based abuse.
Peer-to-peer support is defined as a mutual relationship where #NotYourPorn team members with the contextual knowledge and understanding of image-based abuse offer a safe space for a survivor to express themselves and receive emotional support. It is not a therapeutic relationship, instead it is about having someone who understands to talk to and a place you can always go to be heard.
Peer-to-peer support does not offer practical advice, advocacy or information, this is what our practical support service does. Sometimes there may be overlap, please see more information on how this is managed below.
