We exist to break the silence around abuse and build safer communities from the inside out.

As a survivor of extreme domestic and spiritual abuse, Dionne is committed to sharing stories of survival and inspiration from women and girls affected by trauma. We envision a world where they can live in safety. Until then, we’ll support survivors by sharing their brave stories and raising awareness of domestic abus
Dionne’s journey has taken her from the stages of social justice events to the airwaves of popular podcasts and radio shows, where she bravely speaks on racial discrimination, justice system failures, and domestic abuse.
Dionne’s story is one of strength, resilience, and advocacy. Through every speech, interview, and performance, she empowers others to find their voice and foster meaningful change.
The Dora Milaje Academy offers a range of online and in-person training for professionals, communities and individuals to respond to victims and survivors in a way that creates safer spaces and environments that protect, heal and thrive. Our courses are developed in partnership with LIONESS Relaunch. By educating and empowering individuals like you, we can create a community with the skills to support women and families escaping domestic abuse. Together, we can create safe spaces for survivors to heal and thrive.
Our Warrior Women events are free online discussions with topics around domestic abuse, spiritual abuse, religion and racial justice as key intersections affecting black and brown women. Hear first-hand accounts of survival, resilience, and faith from a diverse panel of women who have overcome abuse and are now using their voices to bring change. This will be an excellent learning tool for practitioners interested in the intersections of faith, beliefs and domestic abuse and how they can impact victims and survivors.
