Volunteer, Peer-Led Family Support Recovery

When someone you love is in a high-control religious group, or when you are the one trying to find your way out, you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.

How We Can Help

Raising Awareness

We provide trainings, seminars, and information packages on the rise of East Asian cults using primary sources, equipping pastors, churches, and ministry leaders with the resources they need to recognize, understand, and respond to these groups within their communities.

Volunteer Exit Planning and Family Support

We work directly with families to provide educational resources and strategic communication guidance. While our volunteers offer deep, practical insights on high-control group mechanics, our peer-led support is strictly non-clinical and does not replace professional therapy.

Volunteer Exit Support

If you are stepping away from a high-control group, our volunteers are here to focus entirely on your freedom and transition. We aren't licensed mental health professionals, but our peer-led community is ready to help you navigate your questions and safely rebuild on solid ground
