“Up until more recently, people didn’t necessarily see how tech might be able to be utilized to either support survivors, to create change, to create new pathways for things. And so I think there’s opportunities for creative thinking around gender-based violence and looking for solutions to some of the challenges.”
— Mary Lobson, Founder + CEO of REES Community
