GirlHQ - Our Vision
Survivor Defined. Survivor Led.
Responsible storytelling begins with empathy, understanding, centering, and believing affected persons. We believe that building a legacy for Survivors is intersectional, inclusive, and unapologetically driven by our expertise.
“Let us break the cycles of violence, poverty, intergenerational trauma, and recognize we can be the last generation of Sexual and Domestic Violence Survivors. We can choose to be good ancestors by righting wrongs, centering and building policies with the most marginalized and vulnerable among us.
“Accountability is a daily practice, as important as forgiveness and deferring to those who are most affected. There was no Survivor sisterhood in the US for me when I survived the six-day-long gang rape that changed my life’s trajectory.
“But my sisterhood found me, gave me grace, grounded my soul. They nourish me every day and challenge me to do more. So it begins with my home, GirlHQ, a place where love, healing, and conversations about survivorship happen every day with me, my daughter, and our many sisters and friends. Join us, and watch this space for exciting announcements about what it means to build a legacy.”
