Our Mission
Founded in 2026, Refuge 61 was established to provide a sanctuary for survivors of church sexual abuse. We believe in the power of community and the necessity of law reform to ensure a safer future for all.
Our mission is to offer resources for healing and advocacy, ensuring that every voice is heard and every victim is supported. We are dedicated to creating a more compassionate and just world for survivors and their families.

Our Leadership Team
We are a dedicated collective of survivors, advocates, and reformers committed to healing and systemic change.
