We are the Torture Abolition and Survivors Support Coalition (TASSC), and we aim to end the practice of torture wherever it occurs and support survivors as they empower themselves, their families and communities wherever they are.

Funders
TASSC receives a variety of funding from federal and local governments, public and private foundations, and individuals like you.
