What it is
Almost every serious resource in this directory argues that trauma sits underneath compulsive sexual behaviour, and abuse histories are common among the men reading it. Until now every abuse resource here was written to women. 1in6 exists for men: a 24/7 helpline, anonymous one-to-one chat with trained advocates, weekly online support groups for male survivors, a video series, survivor stories and a podcast. Anonymity is the feature that matters most — for a lot of men the first disclosure is only possible if nobody can see his face or learn his name, and this lets him start there and move on when he is ready. A program of the Zero Abuse Project, partnered with RAINN, and free. The name comes from the finding that at least one in six men have been sexually abused or assaulted, which is the other thing he needs to know.
