It Stops With Us

Right from the beginning...

When HASSL launched in October 2024, one of our first actions was a global survey – gathering real stories, opinions, and ideas for change from people all over the world.

Why does this matter?

We don’t just want to talk about harassment – we want to tackle it at its root, globally and systemically. This survey keeps us connected to what people truly need in the fight for safer communities.
