02 / Four pillars

How we work

The Foundation's four institutional pillars carry every front and every program, in the United States and in Brazil.

01

Prevention

Education, training and campaigns that stop harm before it begins, in schools, sport, communities and families.

02

Protection

Reception, referral and follow-up for victims and survivors, with safety, confidentiality and dignity.

03

Research

Producing and using evidence to guide policy, programs and decisions. Never figures without a source.

04

Repression

Supporting accountability, coordinating with authorities, and advocating for effective and humane legal responses.

Featured

Knowledge that protects.

Two ways to take the Foundation's work further: an international training for institutions, and a collection of e-books for anyone who wants to recognise, prevent and respond.

You set the pace. You decide what to share. Our role is to offer safe orientation, responsible referral, and a network that does not disappear after the first contact.

How we can help

In an emergency call 911 (USA) or 190 (Brazil). Reporting lines in Brazil: 100 and 180.
