Dear friends, today is the day the world recognizes survivors of torture. Globally survivors, healers, activists and supporters of the movement to end the practice of torture are gathering to honor survivors strength and courage. #June26 is a day of celebration but it is also a cold reminder the practice of torture continues to be used systematically to silence, control and destroy communities who speak out against injustice and promote human rights. Please join me and rededicate yourselves today around ending torture and creating a #torturefreeworld. Visit cvt.org to learn about the Center for Victims of Torture and how you can get support our mission.
