From Victim to Survivor to Thriver:
Do you know someone who has turned a terrible experience into a positive?

Finding inspiration during hardship is a difficult task. Everyone can learn from those who have gone before us. Spotlight hopes to introduce you to people whose lives have been impacted by crime that have followed a path from victim to survivor to thriver.

MOVA would like to highlight those who have triumphed through great adversity. Their stories impact our lives in ways unimaginable. With Spotlight, we offer a chance to thank a survivor and inspire others.
