Commit and Act is an organization dedicated to empowering vulnerable populations. We work with local healthcare workers and other professionals to aid survivors of violence and help prevent violence.
Our primary area of work is Sierra Leone, where we care for survivors of domestic and gender-based violence, individuals coping with trauma from the country’s 11-year civil war, and community members facing mental health challenges.
Within our safe, accepting shelters and workshops, we offer space both to heal from pain and to build fulfilling lives and families.
We are also piloting a project in Colombia, supporting women affected by domestic violence through psychological care and empowerment programs, in partnership with local professionals.
