Born a military brat, Rose traveled the world honing her social skills. Married 30 years with two beautiful children, Rose worked her talents to the fullest. While being caregiver to her husband (G_d rest his soul), Rose created Never Ever Your Fault. This is an educational program geared for teens, but valuable to anyone willing to learn how to overcome and survive trauma from interpersonal violence. This book provides outlets for youth to ask questions about the pressures of being bullied, dating, sexual assault, etc. in a safe environment while providing professional development opportunities to educators and agency professionals that have aided in working with many sexual abuse survivors. Rose’s perseverance working with sexual abuse survivors has won her the ‘08 Sharon Komlos D’Eusanio Award.
