Zen Williams – Message From The Founder

My name is Zen Williams, I am the Founder and a Director of Rise Against Domestic Violence SA.

My original intention was not to establish an organisation, but rather to share my story and experience with domestic violence, narcissistic abuse, and revenge porn.

Shortly after sharing my story, I realised that I was not alone and that others needed assistance, support, and direction, and through this, RISE was born.

RISE has remarkable volunteers who are the organization’s backbone. We have support volunteers, legal volunteers, and WhatsApp groups for both men and women separately. Rise operates remotely through WhatsApp, allowing us to communicate with anybody in need who contacts us throughout South Africa.

We are one of the very few organisations in South Africa that aids both males and females, abuse victims and abusers.

I hope that RISE serves you as it has for thousands of men and women throughout South Africa.

There is life after abuse, I promise.
