Safe Passage Foundation is a not-for-profit foundation established by former second generation Family members Julia McNeil, Lauren Stevens and Nahchey Storer. The organization advocates protection of minors within High-Demand Organizations from abuse and exploitation and based its guiding philosophy on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
The Safe Passage Foundation's mission includes the provision of resources support and advocacy for youth within such organizations, encouraging open dialogue with restrictive communities on welfare matters, providing crisis intervention if needed, and assisting young people in transition through housing and education programs.
The foundation is notable in that it involves former childhood cult members who have moved successfully into outside society.
