Founded by a survivor, built for every woman rebuilding her life after abuse.
Silent Rights is a registered South African Non-Profit Organisation, NPO number 2020/726279/08, founded in 2020 to support women who are surviving abuse, healing from it, or rebuilding the life they have left it for. It exists because too many women are living through abuse in silence, and silence is exactly what abuse depends on to survive.
This platform was built to give women honest information about what abuse looks like, real guidance on rebuilding a life after it, and a genuine community of other women who understand what it takes to get through it, all in one place, so that no woman has to work any of this out alone.
Silent Rights was founded by Chantelle Morrison, an entrepreneur and business strategist who lived through an abusive relationship and built this platform out of what she needed at the time and could not find anywhere else.
Everything on this site is built from lived experience rather than theory, and everything on it exists to make sure another woman does not have to face this without support.
Our blog covers the signs of abuse, what your legal rights look like, and honest, practical guidance on rebuilding your confidence, your finances and your life once you have left, written in plain language with no judgement attached.
If you are currently in an abusive situation, have recently left one, or are simply unsure where to turn, our Resources page will point you toward organisations that can offer legal advice, counselling and financial assistance, services that Silent Rights itself is not able to provide directly.
Women Supporting Women is a Facebook community of over two hundred and fifty thousand women, built on the belief that women showing up honestly for each other is one of the most powerful forces available to any of us.
Rebuilding Your Life
Financial independence is one of the most powerful forms of safety a woman can build for herself. That is why Chantelle founded the Women's Business Community on Skool, a space where women learn to grow visibility, income and a business of their own through connection and genuine community rather than expensive advertising or complicated systems.
A Note On What This Space Is And Is Not
Silent Rights is an information and support platform. We are here to provide you with resources, information and a community that understands what you are going through. We are not able to offer legal advice or legal aid, counselling or therapy services, or financial assistance. If you need any of these services, our Resources page will point you in the right direction toward organisations that can help.
