Bruised, but Not Broken is the true story of a girl who struggled with abuse, the agonies of growing up, and the clash of two cultures. Sadly, her experiences are not unique. Her ordeal is being repeated today by thousands of little girls who wonder if they matter or have any worth in this world. The sexual abuse of children occurs in all neighborhoods and countries, wrecking lives and destroying families. Abuse flourishes in the dark, hidden by secrets, and protected by denials. The willingness to openly confront this heinous crime, even though it is disturbing, is essential to stop the victimization of those least able to defend themselves. Valentina was brave, and the path and decisions she took will astonish you.
