My experience on the board was deeply troubling to me and I am still dealing with the aftershocks almost 4 years later. When I hear about abuses I think about the abuses I witnessed. When I hear people being criticized I think of the criticism I received when I really thought I was doing my very best to represent the needs of my community. It has burned me so bad that even thinking of being in a group environment scares me.
So short answer is that I support all the players and organizations. I want some healing to happen.
