Toni Ivory

I'm a SURVIVOR of abandonment, neglect, verbal, physical, sexual abuse, rape and incest resulting-in pregnacy by my own brother at fourteen. False inprisonment and Stockholm syndrome, But this doesn't define me as a person; for there's much more to me then what others did to me as a child and teen. Though this had a negative inpact in my life. I'm a strong, courageous woman. If it wasn't for GOD and the Earth Angels he worked through, I probably wouldn't be here today. Because of this. "I MUST BE ABOUT MY FATHER"S BUSINESS!" I have to give back, by helping others heal. I'm a Child Advocate, Freelance Writer and I'm writing a book about my past to let people know.......There's life after abuse. I've also created my own Cause on Facebook's Causes. ( Lets Get Congress to Bail Our Children Out Now!) at: www.causes.com/tonipowellivory. More then 6,100 members strong. I'm very passionate about helping others; for many helped me. I bring awareness on Facebook about: Child abuse, rape and incest. Domestic Violence, human trafficking, missing persons, suicide prevention, bullying and BLACK on BLACK crime as well as helping at-risk teens. I'm also on: Twitter @tpispeak, Google+ tonipowellivory, Care2 Care.com, at care2.com/toniivory, LinkedIn, Pintrest, StumbleUpon and ihavegot.com
