The Truth
A Message from Rock Harbor Truth
A new year always carries a sense of possibility — and this one truly feels different.
We’re stepping into 2026 with clarity, momentum, and exciting growth. Thanks to your support, Rock Harbor Truth is entering a new chapter rooted in sustainability, expansion, and deeper service to survivors.
A Major Milestone: We’re Officially a Nonprofit
We’re proud to share that Rock Harbor Truth for the Safety of Children has officially received its nonprofit designation.
This milestone allows us to:
- Apply for grants
- Expand survivor services
- Build long-term, sustainable programs
- Strengthen our advocacy and education efforts
- Allows donors to receive a tax deduction for their charitable contribution and investments in our work.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped make this possible.
🌐 A New Website Is Coming Soon
We’re putting the finishing touches on a brand-new Rock Harbor Truth website, launching in the coming weeks.
The new site will make it easier to:
- Access resources
- Learn about our work
- Listen to podcast episodes
- Get involved and stay connected
- Donate online
Stay tuned — we can’t wait to share it with you.
🧠 Expanding Support for Survivors
With nonprofit status secured, we are beginning work on grant proposals to fund:
- Legal services for survivors
- Therapy and trauma-informed mental health support
Our goal is simple: remove barriers to care and help survivors access the support they deserve.

🎙 Continuing the Podcast — And Inviting Your Voice
The Cult on the Cape podcast continues, and we remain committed to survivor-centered storytelling.
If you are a survivor who feels ready to share your story — publicly or anonymously — we welcome you to reach out at rockharbortruth@gmail.com. Your voice matters.
📚 Community Conversations & Book Clubs
We’re inspired by the growing number of book clubs engaging with this work. Several groups have read books related to coercive control, trauma, and recovery — and have hosted authors and survivors for thoughtful Q&A conversations.
If you would like to host an author or survivor at your next book club, please let us know at rockharbortruth@gmail.com.
These spaces of dialogue and learning are powerful, and we’re grateful for each one.
