About RFCC

The aim of Recover From Coercive Control (RFCC) is to create a stand to protect and preserve the well-being, freedom, and integrity of our loved ones and society. Destructive cult leaders are directors of organisations that exploit, manipulate, and isolate individuals, tearing families apart and inflicting emotional, psychological, and sometimes physical harm. RFCC is committed to counteracting the influence of dangerous cults, raise awareness, and support those affected by their insidious practices.

 

Principles

 

1. Protection of Personal Integrity

• To preserve the sanctity of personal integrity and assert that no external entity, particularly one with a history of coercion and control, should interfere with one's relationship to self and others.

• Strive to shield loved ones and society from manipulative influences that seek to sever familial and community bonds for the gain of a cult leader.

 

2. Advocacy for Awareness and Education

• Committed to educating the public about the dangers of cults and the tactics they employ to recruit and retain members.

• Provide resources and support for families and individuals affected by cult activities, facilitating recovery and reunification.

 

3. Support for Victims and Survivors

• Stand in solidarity with those who have suffered under the influence of destructive cults, offering a network of support, counselling, and assistance.

• Work to ensure that victims receive the help they need to rebuild their lives free from coercive control and cultic influence.

 

4. Advancement of Legal and Social Accountability

• Call for increased scrutiny and legal action against the activities of cultic groups, advocating for stronger laws to protect vulnerable individuals from exploitation.

• Lobby for social policies that promote mental health, critical thinking, and resilience against manipulative groups.

3. Advocating for Legal Reform

• Work with lawmakers and legal experts to develop and promote legislation that protects individuals from cult exploitation and holds cult leaders accountable for their actions.

• Push for legal recognition of the unique psychological and emotional damages inflicted by cults, seeking justice for victims.
