Survivors International is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing essential psychological and medical services to survivors of torture who have fled from around the world to the San Francisco Bay Area. SI aims to help survivors put the pieces back together by providing the support they need to re-establish healthy and productive lives after their experiences of torture.
June 26th was International Day in Support of Victims of Torture. In commemoration of this day, the California Consortium of Torture Treatment Centers makes its annual legislative trip to Sacramento this year on Tuesday, June 30, 2009.
This will conclude the events, which occurred from June 19th through June 26th for the Week of Healing, to acknowledge World Refugee Day and International Day in Support of Victims of Torture. We thank all of the people who gave generously of their time and resource to make the events throughout the past week possible.
