Our list of external resources for perpetrators, as well as resources for communities experiencing internal violence and folks who are interested in learning more about transformative justice.
Part of taking an intersectional approach to sexual violence is the recognition that anyone can be a victim of sexual violence and that, similarly, anyone has the capacity to harm. Because of our experience growing up within rape culture, we are often not given the tools to be able to see, acknowledge, unpack, and address the harm we have caused. We share these resources for folks who have perpetuated harm to be able to use when looking for resources or first steps toward accountability.
The reading or use of these materials on their own by no means is an accountability process in and of itself, and should not be treated as a ‘checkbox’ in addressing harm. Instead, we hope these links serve as a jumping off point for larger discussions both at the individual level and within communities of how we continue to perpetuate, and how we can begin to address and prevent further violence in our communities.
Below is a list of links to resources for perpetrators (those who have caused harm), as well as communities dealing with violence between community members, and folks interested in transformative justice.
