Will County Take Back the Night 2014, Joliet, Illinois-Fear can be defeated.



Start watching at 14 minutes for two powerful stories. I want to warn you this may be triggering -although there is not lots of details. It is tastefully done and powerful.  A few years ago, at my coworkers wedding, her brother murdered and sexually assaulted his friend and her unborn baby. The mother of the victim and my coworker (the murderer's sister) give powerful presentation about how they have dealt with their fear and grief. They are both amazing examples- who have taken their horrible life experiences and have decided to use it for good. I think you will be inspired! Kelly reminds us that fear can be overcome. For someone who has suffered from physical, emotional and sexual abuse and has then struggled with the the anxiety and OCD disorders that followed --she shows that you can push past your fears.
