Tough Angels is a non-profit organization based in Colorado, USA, dedicated to preventing rapes against women and children in developing countries. They engage and empower communities through curriculum and training, creating supportive forums for discussions on consensual sex and HIV/AIDS prevention. They also provide support and healing to survivors through expressive therapeutic methods, such as art, music, writing, and dance, while raising awareness and strengthening the social fabric of communities.
Tough Angels was founded by Patricia Melnice, who volunteered in South Africa and witnessed the devastating effects of rape on children. Inspired by the resilience and strength of these survivors, she left her job and dedicated herself to addressing this epidemic problem. With over 30 years of experience in emergency services and a background in advocating for women and children, Patricia and her team work tirelessly to make a positive impact and bring about change in their own communities and beyond.
