As we prepared to send our children to college, we faced a devastating reality: one in five women in the U.S. will experience a life-altering tragedy. This isn't just a statistic—it’s personal, reflecting the experiences of the women in our own family.

Birdie envisions a world where safety is a right. We are here to activate communities and accelerate change. Trust your intuition. Watch out for your friends. Talk to your daughters. Most importantly, include boys and men in this mission—because a conversation about women’s safety cannot be held by women alone.
