Angela Shelton has the qualities I admire in anybody who is making a difference.  Angela is an agent for change, a catalyst, an alchemist.  Angela has made her private story our public story and her transformation our transformation.

Bold, brave, honest and inspiring, Finding Angela Shelton continues to promote awareness and healing to the masses. Angela’s self-professed “big mouth” is changing the world one survivor at a time…I hope she never shuts up!

Though she takes on serious issues, Angela Shelton is joyous, irreverent, funny, and feisty!

Angela’s words will reach into your soul and shake you awake! She is fierce and bold and her passion to put a face on issues like domestic violence and child sexual abuse is compelling and necessary.

I have encountered an angel in Angela.

Searching for Angela Shelton is too important, too meaningful, too touching, TOO TERRIFIC to been seen casually. From the first frame to the last I was in turn riveted, weepy, drained, shattered, hopeful…and plenty of other emotions in between. You are one remarkable, talented lady. It took enormous courage, persistence, and honesty to pull this off. Most importantly, you managed to keep your sense of humor, and at the same time show a willingness to forgive. What an unbeatable combo! Congratulations! This film should be shown in every home, in every country, in the world. Bravo!

Angela is an unstoppable force for honor, justice, courage. By finding her voice she has given permission to tens of thousands of survivors to say, ‘me too’ and thus begin there own journey of healing and recovering. As an organization that focus’ on teaching responsible adults how to prevent, recognize and react responsibly we realize there are many aspects of the complicated issue of child sexual abuse we do not cover. And for the support, healing and how to become a healthy viable ‘force’ in the world, with honor, we point to Angela Shelton!

Angela Shelton may be the first woman in history to turn a horrific childhood into a movement so full of hope and inspiration, even people who haven’t suffered any form of child abuse want to get involved. Angela defied the odds and turned her pain into real power. If you want to understand how the human spirit can thrive in the face of unimaginable childhood trauma, listen to Angela!

Angela Shelton is the most amazing woman I know besides my mom. She made me laugh and cry and I’m a guy. I’m going to treat women better all because of Angela Shelton.

Angela Shelton inspires people of all ages to shatter the silence and create a world without violence!

I am overwhelmed and ever so grateful for that little girl who grew up to be Angela Shelton, the courageous young woman who persevered and found her own way through the tapestry of life who has woven a beautiful cloak of self worth and value that she shares with all who have been abused.

I feel the essence of Angela Shelton that is much more than that of one brave woman. It is a power that covers the entire earth giving each of us encouragement to leave behind everything that keeps us less-than. Finding Angela Shelton should be required reading in all high schools and colleges. It should be required reading for all social workers and law enforcement officers. I am so very proud of Angela Shelton and to share in the healing she brings to us all.

Angela Shelton is amazing. She speaks for every abused person who has lived through the same hell.
