After we received an amazingly powerful letter from a survivor who had recently read the book Voices of Courage, Karen D. Carroll (one of the survivors in the book and the Associate Director at Bronx SART) shared the following comment with us:
"I am frequently asked about how I got through my ordeal. I spent years asking….why me? It finally occurred to me 3 years ago that my experience happened to me not because of what I did, but because of what I will do!"
When you share the above quote with others, please give Karen Carroll all the credit!! Her words are a fantastic example of the strength survivors possess.
