Ending Religious Abuse for Our Queer Family
Religious abuse is a collective wound — and survivors should not have to carry it alone.
Religious abuse does not begin with cruelty. It begins with ideas that is used to justify control, shame, and exclusion — and then protected by institutions.
When harmful theology goes unchallenged, harm becomes predictable, repeatable, and normalized. Over time, systems begin to carry that harm forward, embedding it into culture, policy, and practice.
When Theology Harms, Abuse Follows
Who We Are
DIVINE All Along exists to end religious abuse and restore dignity, safety, and belonging for our queer family.
We do this in three connected ways:
Healing & Support — creating spaces where people harmed by religion can process, heal, and reclaim their worth
Public Education & Advocacy — naming how harmful theology becomes systemic abuse, and why silence is not neutral
Accountability with Faith Communities — helping communities move from intention to real responsibility through our DIVINE Spaces program
We do not offer guarantees or quick fixes. We build the conditions for honesty, accountability, and repair — over time.
