Information about Supports and Services for Survivors
On this page you will find information on supports and services for Survivors living in Ireland and Overseas
Background
Welcome to our Directory of Supports and Services for Survivors and
Affected Persons. We hope you find this to be a helpful tool for all of those who are seeking clear, practical information on supports and services. This Directory was developed in response to a lack of up-to-date and factual information for Survivors. This is a recurring issue raised by Survivors with the Special Advocate office.
What is Featured in this Directory
Advocacy Supports for Survivors
Organisations providing advocacy supports assist Survivors and
Affected Persons in understanding their rights and options and in
having their voices heard. This may include collective advocacy,
individual or one to one advocacy, support with decision making,
and assistance engaging with services or processes.
Practical and Issue-based Supports for Survivors
Practical and issue based supports help Survivors and Affected
Persons address specific challenges that may arise due to their
lived experience or its ongoing impact. These supports may
include assistance with housing, health, finances, education, form
filling, or other everyday concerns.
Financial redress and Supports for Survivors
Redress related supports provide information and guidance on
redress schemes relating to institutional abuse, including both
schemes that are currently open for applications and those that
have closed. Organisations may offer practical assistance with
navigating applications and engagement with redress schemes.
