Dear Friends,

In just a few days, June Torture Awareness Month begins, a month that holds added weight this year as examples of suffering and injustice abound. In honor of Torture Awareness Month, NRCAT is launching a whole new line of NRCAT apparel so that we can wear our values as we work together for a torture-free future for all.

Check out our new NRCAT store today, and order your gear.

NRCAT’s 2025 Torture Awareness Month theme is “living our values.” Throughout the month of June, we will be bringing you resources for living out the best of our faith traditions by working together to end torture in policy, practice and culture. 

Whether hosting monthly vigils or film screenings, testifying at hearings or meeting with policy makers, corresponding with someone enduring solitary confinement or uplifting the stories and leadership of torture survivors in your place of worship, our message that torture is a moral issue is needed more now than ever.

We are grateful for all the ways you participate in and support our work!

In solidarity,
The NRCAT Team
