Speaking Out Against Violence

We focus on empowering survivors to take action and create change. Our Amplify program strengthens the field and collective leadership of people working to uproot the causes of gender-based violence.

Misha, Survivor

In the darkest moments, it’s just sort of like a sacred army.

Anna, Survivor​

Sometimes it really truly is just giving someone a seat at the table, and I know that they’ve done that for me.

A violence free future in Vermont looks real. It looks like it can happen. It starts with making sure that people have what they need.
