At Responsible Sourcing Network (RSN) we are dedicated to ending human rights abuses and forced labor associated with the raw materials found in the products we use every day. Our mission is propelled by the formation of strategic partnerships across a spectrum of stakeholders, encompassing other NGOs, brands, and advocates for human rights. RSN is proactive in facilitating impactful change by addressing critical areas such as the sourcing of minerals from areas fraught with conflict and high-risk, as well as the presence of forced labor in cotton production. Through our leading initiative, YESS: Yarn Ethically & Sustainably Sourced, we're dedicated to removing modern slavery from the roots of cotton production. By adopting a due diligence approach, RSN aims to excise cotton tainted by forced labor from the apparel supply chain. This endeavor is championed by the active engagement of our member-based consortium of global brands and industry participants. In synergy with sustainable cotton initiatives and various programmatic efforts, RSN strives to foster a standardized due diligence framework for the industry at large.RSN's commitment extends to providing companies with tools to align with anti-slavery and due diligence regulations, training mills to establish robust due diligence systems, and creating an industry-wide list of verified ethical spinners and mills.

Callisto is a rapidly growing nonprofit tech startup that has created an online sexual assault reporting and documentation system that helps identify serial sexual predators. The system launched 2.5 years ago on 2 pilot college campuses, and has since grown to 12 colleges and an entertainment industry pilot. Reporting on participating campuses has doubled, assaults have been reported 3 times faster, and 15% of victims have matched with another victim of the same assailant (meaning they were informed that they weren't the only one and connected to the same investigator or legal advisor). In the next year, we will be rapidly expanding to address sexual assault and coercion in multiple industries, connecting victims of the same predator together and with legal support.
