About FinAbility:
FinAbility is a high-growth nonprofit that financially empowers survivors of domestic violence, so they can break free from the cycle of abuse and thrive.
As a survivor-founded and led nonprofit, we deeply understand the strong connection between financial security and physical safety, in addition to the unique barriers survivors face in building financial security. Using our expertise in tech and finance, we build digital tools that make financial education and resources accessible to survivors through a trauma-informed lens. Survivor voices inform everything we do. Together, we're working towards a future in which everyone has the financial security to live free from abuse and thrive.
