Important safety and confidentiality information
Scars Like Wings Foundation is not a 24/7 crisis hotline, emergency-response agency, emergency shelter, law firm, medical provider, or clinical mental-health treatment facility. Survivor-facing forms and submissions are not monitored 24/7. Do not use a form to request emergency assistance.
Only share information you feel safe sharing. If someone else may have access to your device, consider using a safer device or private browsing and clear your browsing history if it is safe for you to do so.
Ask for support
If it is safe for you to use email, contact slwfinc@gmail.com. You can use a first name or nickname and briefly tell us what kind of support you are looking for. Please tell us whether it is safe to reply to your email. Do not send details you do not feel safe sharing.
