Community Guidelines

Welcome to the Onward Sister community! This is a safe space to discuss our many stories, rich with individual experience and perspective. We are 4+ billion unique individuals on this planet; our views will never be totally the same!

We want everyone to be part of our community and have their voice heard.

We encourage your feedback and aim to respond to your comments as soon as possible. While we do moderate this community, we welcome open discussion. 

To help everyone enjoy our community, we ask that when you post, you keep in mind the following: 

  • We don’t allow defamatory, indecent, offensive, profane, discriminatory, misleading, unlawful or threatening comments. 
  • Personal attacks, name-calling, trolling and abuse will not be tolerated.
  • Spamming, posting promotional material or posting links to third party websites is not permitted.
  • We reserve the right to delete comments at our discretion and block any repeat offenders. We will remove content that is fraudulent, deceptive or misleading.
  • Coordinated group attacks will not be tolerated. 
  • Respect that other people in the community have had different life experiences and may have a different perspective to yours. We welcome different viewpoints.
  • Our community is a public place. Don’t post personal information that you would not be comfortable sharing with a stranger. We recommend that you don’t post any information that may identify you or anyone else, such as your address, email address or phone number.
  • We believe in the hard-earned and hard-kept Freedom of Speech in the United States. With respect and honor for that freedom, there are many platforms available for political discourse, discussion of debatable topics, and those tricky grey areas that often tear us apart. If that is what you are looking for, we encourage you to find a platform developed for that type of communication. We certainly do.
  • Here at Onward Sister, we want to provide a place to honor the life challenges we face, the differences that make us uniquely beautiful, and the successes we have achieved in a world that is challenging for women. Let us honor and protect each other. That is why we are a Sisterhood.
