Elevate | Uplift, supported by a collective of national organizations leading anti-sexual violence work, is built on the foundation of lessons learned from the Sexual Assault Demonstration Initiative, a multi-year national project that helped community-based organizations strengthen services for survivors of sexual violence.
Elevate | Uplift deepens and broadens that work by offering survivor-serving organizations the opportunity to explore these lessons learned with us.
We engage with organizations to change practices and expand their understanding of healing.
We offer learning opportunities to help survivor-serving agencies think critically about how they do their work and make the changes necessary to provide comprehensive and sustainable support for survivors.
We offer opportunities for organizations to establish practices and services rooted in anti-racism and anti-oppression frameworks, learn strategies for building empowering leadership, create intentional organizational identity, engage in impactful community organizing and movement building, and expand knowledge of sexual violence and healing.
