Release and Bloom 🌻

Release and Bloom is an accessible, survivor-centered initiative for women and gender-diverse people with disabilities who have experienced gender-based violence (GBV.) The program is grounded in our theory of change centering peer leadership, collective care, and community-based solutions to GBV. Through facilitated sessions, outreach, and accessibility-related supports, the program will strengthen participants’ safety, confidence, and leadership while reducing isolation.
