Upcoming Events (2023)

According to a study conducted by Gallup, safety is one of the critical needs of community members. As leaders, the systems, cultures, and values that we create can either damage or promote a sense of safety, particularly for people who have experienced trauma. In this workshop, learn the primary components of emotional safety and practical ways to transform your systems. Register here.

Are you a survivor of sexual abuse looking for a community of support? When sexual abuse happens, feelings of hopelessness can take over. But you are not alone. Reclaim is a support group for survivors of sexual assault to help survivors reclaim their voice, body, and hope. This will be a safe space for survivors to share practices that support their healing journey after sexual violence. Register here.

1 in 3 women are survivors of sexual abuse worldwide. Putting this into context, this means one-third of your female relationships at work, church, or in your family may have experienced sexual abuse. Knowing this might change the way we support survivors of sexual abuse in our communities. Whether you’re a pastor, church leader, corporate manager, parent, or student, we can all play a transformative role in preventing sexual violence wherever we are. Partnering with faith-based organizations, Freely in Hope is excited to invite you to this hybrid event that equips faith leaders with survivor-led solutions to combat sexual abuse. We believe that faith-based organizations can be a leading example that transforms abusive systems into sanctuaries of safety throughout our world. Register here.

Q& A From Pain to Power – The Super Girls Revolution with Magdalene

As a survivor of sexual violence, I started SGR in my mother’s backyard because the need to ensure girls were supported through mentorship, education, and empowerment was so urgent. My dream was always consistent: to mentor girls to take up space and be leaders, allowing every light in the community to shine.

How Safe Spaces and Survivor-Led Care Are Multiplying Healing

The movement to end sexual violence is undergoing a profound and necessary transformation. For decades, the global conversation has often focused on external interventions and temporary aid. Today, a new, powerful model is emerging: one that centers the unshakeable wisdom, expertise, and leadership of African survivors. This isn’t just about inclusion; it is a strategic shift toward sustainability, efficacy, and genuine, lasting societal change.

How FIH Is Strengthening the Ecosystem of Care for Survivors in Kenya

Kenya’s fight against sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) is far from over. Poverty, harmful cultural practices, lack of GBV awareness, lack of access to justice among others perpetuate violence in many Kenyan communities. In addition to that, survivors when seeking for help face stigma, fear and trauma not only from the violence itself but also from systems that are meant to provide protection, support and justice. Instead, the systems end up silencing them. As a result, it makes their healing difficult and the violence hidden.
