AboutHazel

The founders of Hazel worked for years in the medical and legal fields. In their work with survivors of rape, sexual assault, and sexual violence, they saw firsthand the traumatic experiences victims suffered, not only from their assailants but also from struggling with the complicated and disjointed systems after. Survivors reported that retelling and reliving their experiences was nearly as traumatizing as the assault itself. The founders came together to design a system that was simple, unified, and most of all, kind.

Hazel prioritizes ease of use. Rather than survivors searching for services, we gather the available services here. Hazel prioritizes comfort and care. Through sharing Hazel account records, survivors can communicate everything about their encounter with a single click.
