At The 1st 28 Foundation, we believe that no sexual assault survivor should have to heal alone. The first 28 days after trauma can be the hardest. Many survivors feel lost, overwhelmed, and unsure of where to turn. Too often, they leave hospitals, police stations, and crisis centers with nothing but paperwork—no emotional support, no guidance, and no tools to help them heal. We are here to change that. Our foundation provides free healing journals to survivors of sexual assault and other traumas. These journals give survivors a safe, private space to process their emotions, regain a sense of control, and begin their healing journey. We partner with hospitals, police stations, and advocacy groups to make sure these resources reach those who need them most. Healing should not be a privilege. But for many, therapy is too expensive, mental health resources are hard to find, and trauma-informed care is not always available—especially in marginalized communities. Our mission is to bridge this gap, providing survivors with immediate, judgment-free tools that help them navigate the first and often most difficult days of healing. Every person deserves the chance to heal, to feel safe, and to reclaim their life. With your support, we can reach more survivors, provide more healing resources, and ensure that no one is left to suffer in silence. Together, we can help survivors turn pain into power—one page at a time.
