Curt Goering served as CVT exec director from 2012-21, a time of expansion in programming. He comments on the need for CVT’s care, saying “. . . at a time of resurgent denial of torture and its impacts, and increasingly, its justification, the role of CVT has never been more critical or needed.”

Over CVT’s 40 years, we expanded to many countries, serving thousands of survivors. Many programs have since closed, but our hearts are with our colleagues and clients always.

It’s CVT’s 40th anniversary! Join us in celebrating our milestones and accomplishments from our beginnings back in 1985. Watch for information and details from our four decades of healing and hope.

Survivors of torture have spoken out: It is time to ban goods that have no purpose other than torture. Read the joint declaration from survivors, who write, “We unequivocally support a torture-free trade treaty.”

The lawsuit CVT joined took a huge blow Friday when the Supreme Court let the Trump administration withhold $4 billion in foreign aid which had been appropriated by Congress and was set to expire today. Even in the face of this setback, we continue to fight for our clients in every way we can.

We must ban the trade of goods that have no use other than torture. It’s time for a torture-free trade treaty. Sign the petition: www.amnesty.org/en/petition/...
