Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide compassionate support and counselling services for individuals and families affected by homicide, while advocating for changes in the legal system to ensure justice and accountability. We believe that every person has the right to heal from the trauma of homicide and that the legal system should be responsive to the needs and experiences of survivors. Our goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where survivors can access the resources they need to rebuild their lives and where we can work together to create a more just and equitable society. We strive to be a beacon of hope and healing, promoting a world where homicide survivors are valued and supported, and where the voices of those impacted by violence are heard and acted upon.
