The president of the Kike Osborne Foundation will present her book 'When Silence is Not an Option' in Mijas.

Fabiola Martínez, the president of the Kike Osborne Foundation, will present her book 'When Silence is Not an Option' next Wednesday, April 30. The event will take place at 7:00 PM at the Manuel España theater and admission is free until full capacity is reached.

'When Silence is Not an Option' is an inspiring story about the importance of resilience and the courage required to face fears in order to heal past wounds. In the book, Fabiola Martínez shares biographical situations. Born in Maracaibo (Venezuela) into a low-income family, she suffered sexual abuse from the age of five, a trauma that still affects her today. Years later, the birth of her children led the author to understand the true meaning of love and to find the confidence in herself to be the voice of her own story.

An activist and advocate for the rights of families and individuals with special needs, she dedicates her social and educational efforts through the Kike Osborne Foundation.

For all these reasons, the mayor of Mijas, Ana Mata, stated that the purpose of the event "is that her testimony helps other families to identify situations that are often kept in silence and are hard to open up about. That is why I encourage the residents of Mijas to attend this presentation where they will discover a brave woman who, through her life experience, offers her help to act and report signs of abuse."
