Strategic Priorities
Legislative Advocacy & Systems Change
Community Power & Collective Liberation
Community Power & Collective Liberation
This priority advances survivor- and community-led, nonpartisan policy solutions to prevent gender-based and digital violence. Through coalition building, legislative education, and public advocacy, we work to strengthen state and federal protections while holding systems accountable to those most impacted. Our approach ensures public policy is shaped by lived experience, equity, and evidence-based solutions
Community Power & Collective Liberation
Community Power & Collective Liberation
Community Power & Collective Liberation
This priority transforms cultural norms that enable violence by centering on healing, education, and collective responsibility. Through community workshops, survivor-informed retreats, and public awareness campaigns, the program promotes consent, empathy, and safety as shared values. Its goal is to shift mindsets, disrupt harmful beliefs, and empower communities to prevent violence before it begins.
AI & Digital Safety
Community Power & Collective Liberation
Men's Engagement & Accountable Masculinities
This priority advances safety, dignity, and equity in online and AI-powered spaces. We provide digital rights education, advocate for platform accountability, and lead initiatives to prevent and respond to online harassment, surveillance, and algorithmic bias. The program also advances policies and protections for marginalized individuals disproportionately targeted by digital gender-based violence and technology-enabled harm.
Men's Engagement & Accountable Masculinities
Economic Justice & Survivor Self-Determination
Men's Engagement & Accountable Masculinities
This priority equips men and boys to actively challenge toxic masculinity and prevent violence through empathy, respect, and accountability. We deliver trauma-informed, age-appropriate curricula in K–12 schools and train male leaders to model healthy relationships and nonviolent behavior. The program strengthens communities by engaging men as partners in safety, equity, and cultural change.
Economic Justice & Survivor Self-Determination
Economic Justice & Survivor Self-Determination
Economic Justice & Survivor Self-Determination
This priority builds economic power as a pathway to safety and self-determination for communities at risk of exploitation. Through civic education, financial literacy, and community-led resource building, participants gain tools to divest from predatory systems and invest in sustainable opportunities rooted in their strengths and assets. The program advances long-term stability, dignity, and resilience as essential foundations for violence prevention
