This survey seeks to collect information on victims of spiritual abuse, such as former members of cultic groups or people who have been involved in manipulative relationships in mainstream churches or other settings.
There are various definitions of the term “spiritual abuse.” That is why one question in this survey asks you to describe what spiritual abuse means to you.
Your answers will help ICSA’s Spiritual Safe Haven Network, which works with religious organizations that provide community, information, and assistance to those who have been spiritually abused. (
