Our Goal and Mission

Domestic violence, sexual assault, and sex trafficking are pressing issues that require our attention and action. These crimes cut across societal boundaries and affect individuals from all demographics, including those in the paranormal community. Sadly, the stigma surrounding these topics often silences victims, leaving them feeling isolated and ashamed.
It is crucial that we, as a society, establish a safe and supportive environment for victims to come forward without fear of judgment or blame. This involves challenging harmful stereotypes and misconceptions, such as the belief that abuse only occurs among certain types of people or that victims can easily escape their situations. By promoting open discussions and providing resources, we can empower survivors to share their stories and seek the help they need.
Moreover, education and awareness are key in dismantling the myths that perpetuate these issues. We must teach empathy, respect, and consent from a young age, ensuring that everyone understands the importance of boundaries and the impact of their actions on others.
In the paranormal community, as in any community, it is essential to acknowledge that these problems exist and take a stand against them. We must not ignore or dismiss the experiences of those who have suffered. Instead, let us be allies, offering support, understanding, and advocacy for victims.
By standing together, we can create a world where no one feels alone in their struggles and where all individuals have the opportunity to heal and thrive. Let us continue to bring these conversations to the forefront and ensure that every voice is heard and validated.
