Trauma Healing Program for Survivors of Sexual Violence, Northern Nigeria

“I had no peace in my heart. I couldn’t eat, and I couldn’t sleep. Whenever I was alone, I remembered how those two men raped me... it is a wound that takes a gradual process to heal.” A group of Fulani herdsmen attacked Aisha’s village at night. They took her husband away and two men brutally beat and raped her in her own home, with her three children in the room.
