MK Safety Net
Share
Since 1999, MK Safety Net has been a resource for MKs who experienced abuse in mission settings.
WHO WE ARE:
The roots of MK Safety Net go back to 1995 when six MKs went public about the abuse they had experienced at their missionary boarding school in Guinea, West Africa. Their journey to that point and the events that unfolded afterward led to other MKs looking to them for understanding and encouragement on their journeys of disclosing their abuse and holding their mission boards accountab
