OUR WORK
We exist to help communities prevent, intervene, and respond to physical and sexual abuse against women effectively.

OUR WHY
Because one in three women experiences sexual assault, relationship violence, or stalking in their lifetime.
OUR IMPACT
To date, we have worked with over 30,000 people on four continents, providing prevention education, self defense training, and case consulting.
OUR PROJECTS
Global Partnerships
We partnered with the US Embassy and the State Department to ensure a safer world. That work continues today, safeguarding the lives of women and girls throughout Uzbekistan. See the video detailing this powerful initiative here.

Training for Law Enforcement
Officers play an important role in the journey of survivors. During this transformative training, law enforcement learns how to best support survivors of physical and sexual abuse.
