Now Accepting Submissions for the November 2012 Edition of the Blog Against Child Abuse

The Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse is a monthly event. Its purpose is to raise awareness about the serious issue of child abuse. All forms of abuse (physical, emotional, sexual, spiritual, verbal) are discussed.


This month marks two years since Marj at Survivors Can Thrive! retired from running the Blog Carnival, and passed it on to me. It has been such a privilege to carry on the work that she started, and I appreciate each one of you who contributes to the carnival and reads the posts that are shared.

The November edition of the Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse will be hosted here, at From Tracie.

The theme will be: Your Story, Your Purpose
Blogging is a courageous thing. We all take pieces of our stories, our hearts, the darkness we fight against and the light we strive towards, and we put it out there for the world to read. Has sharing your story changed you, or taught you something? Do you blog as a way to give yourself a voice, or to connect to the community of survivors, or for another reason entirely? I want to learn why you blog about your surviver story and healing.

All of our regular categories will also be open:
-Advocacy and Awareness
-Aftermath
-Healing and Therapy
-In the News
-Poetry
-Survivor Stories
-Art Therapy

The deadline for submissions is November 21st, and the carnival will be posted on the 23rd. I'm excited to see what y'all share this month. You can submit something written especially for this edition, but please feel free to submit an older post as well.

To submit a blog post, please fill out this form.

The Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse provides an opportunity to raise awareness about the serious issue of child abuse and to share important posts with others who might not be frequent readers of an author's blog. There are so many wonderful bloggers who are contributing to the cause of ending and recovering from child abuse. If you, as a reader or author, know of other blogs that you find helpful, please encourage them to submit to an upcoming issue of the Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse so we can continue to receive high quality submissions from a wide swath of bloggers.

Many thanks to all of you who shared your hearts and stories with us, and to all of you who read the submissions and show your support. You keep this carnival, the awareness, support, and healing going each month.
