Our story
NAAVoices began as survival writing. It grew into a survivor-led advocacy platform after years of navigating domestic abuse, post-separation abuse, family court, schools, and policing — and watching those systems too often protect reputations rather than people.
What emerged was a clear need: a space where survivors and families can find accurate information about their rights, without being doubted first.
NAAVoices is founded and run by Amy Royle — a registered nurse, neurodiversity advocate, and survivor advocate. Every resource here is written with clinical knowledge and lived experience in equal measure, and the two are never confused for one another.
“Survivors and families need a safe, validating space where their voices genuinely matter. NAAVoices exists because those spaces were too rare, and too often conditional.”Amy Royle, founder — NAAVoices.com
For professionals and advocates
Referral pathways, clinical guidance, and practical documents for anyone working alongside survivors and neurodivergent families.

A note on identity
NAAVoices was originally founded under a pseudonym to protect my identity. With time and healing I have come to realise that reducing stigma does not come from staying hidden — it comes from openness. Domestic abuse, mental health difficulties, and the need for advocacy happen to people from every walk of life. Speaking openly is an important part of normalising these conversations so that others feel safe to do the same.
