Mission

Founded in 1985, the Center for Victims of Torture (CVT) exists to heal the wounds of government-sponsored torture on individuals, their families, and communities and to stop its practice. We work locally, nationally, and internationally to build healing communities where torture survivors feel welcomed, protected and healed. CVT fulfills this mission by providing services directly to torture survivors, including medical and psychological treatment and social services; training health, education and human services professionals who work with torture survivors and refugees; conducting research on the effects of torture and on effective treatment methods; and advocating for public policy initiatives that will help heal survivors and put an end to the practice of torture.
