At the Clinton Center: The stories behind the statistics.

Email not displaying correctly? View it in your browser

Behind every gender-related violence statistic, there is deeply human story. We brought twelve of them to the Clinton Presidential Center.

At The Voices and Faces Project we believe that a story can change everything. Opening hearts. Altering minds. Challenging us to do more to alleviate the suffering caused by gender-related violence in the US, and beyond our borders.

Voices and Faces Project founder Anne K. Ream's 2014 Clinton Presidential Center Lecture was all about storytelling and social change. Now available as part of the Clinton Speakers Series Video Library, Anne's talk is an overview of her multi-year, multi-country journey spent listening to survivors, an introduction to 12 extraordinary women and men who shared their stories with The Voices and Faces Project, and a primer on how survivors of gender-related violence are using their testimonies to create political change.

Watch the Clinton Center video of Anne's full talk, which features the photography of Patricia Evans.
