This year’s conference honors the people who built this movement, and the people continuing to carry it forward. For generations, survivors, advocates, organizers, and community members have created safety, support, and change together. Their lived experience, knowledge, and care have shaped this work from the very beginning. Join us for two days of connection, learning, and envisioning what’s possible when we build safety, healing, and belonging together.

Speaker and workshop announcements coming soon! For more information, please see our FAQ page or contact us at [email protected].

Technology is increasingly part of the safety concerns survivors bring to advocates, from phones, social media, location tracking, and hidden devices to online harassment, impersonation, and rapidly changing AI tools. This practical workshop will explore how technology is being used to monitor, intimidate, exploit, and harm survivors, while giving advocates concrete strategies for responding. We’ll look at safer communication, digital trails, documentation, tracking concerns, accessible tools advocates can use with survivors, and the role agencies play in making sure staff have the training and resources they need.
