Lucian's Story
To Come
In 2023, Lucian and their family moved to a new neighborhood.
Their street was filled with other families, and Lucian’s mother quickly felt
comfortable letting Lucian play with other kids, assuming
that they were looking out for each other and staying safe.
A few months after their move, Lucian confessed that an older boy from
the block would bring Lucian into his home and sexually abuse Lucian while
the other boy’s parents were out. Many of the other families on the block
refused to believe Lucian’s story, saying that their offender was “a good kid”
and Lucian was just “starting trouble.”
PCA’s team helped Lucian and their family understand that the road
to recovery is not always easy. They were provided the resources and support
Lucian needed to stay strong, tell their story, and build their personal
support system.
