The institutions that failed you can be held accountable

Many survivors were harmed in places that were supposed to keep them safe. If an institution's negligence, cover-up or failure to act contributed to what happened, it can be held responsible in civil court.

Rideshare Companies

Uber and Lyft drivers have assaulted thousands of passengers. Survivors are holding these companies accountable for inadequate background checks and ignored safety complaints.

Online Platforms

Roblox, Discord, Snapchat and Fortnite have become hunting grounds for predators. Families are suing these platforms for failing to protect children from exploitation.

Religious Organizations

Survivors of abuse within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are pursuing claims against the institution for covering up abuse instead of protecting children.

Institutional Care

Juvenile detention centers and residential treatment facilities have long histories of staff abuse against the people in their custody. Survivors are holding these institutions accountable.

Frequently asked questions

You may be able to file a civil claim if you were abused by an individual while in the care of an institution — or if an institution's negligence, cover-up or failure to act contributed to the abuse. This includes survivors of abuse in juvenile detention, treatment facilities, rideshares, religious organizations and online platforms. Parents can also file on behalf of children who were harmed.
