Protection, made visible.

A visible signal of protection that turns awareness into action — so no one facing danger is ignored, and no one under the court's protection ever feels alone.

INVISIBLE INVISIBLE
01The Problem

Protection orders exist. Nobody recognizes them.

A

Unseen

Victims remain vulnerable in plain sight — the legal protection order document is invisible in the real world.

B

Unprepared

Communities don't know how to intervene safely when someone is at risk.

C

Unrecognized

Most people don't understand what a protection order means in real life.

Protection is invisible
when it matters most.
Not anymore.The Signal
02The Signal
The PACT decal
01

It identifies.

The PACT decal marks someone under a current protection order — a legal court document, made visible.

02

It alerts.

The community is aware — without words, hesitation, or embarrassing explanations. The symbol speaks for itself.

03

It moves people.

Safe, informed action — people know what it means and what to do, in the moment it matters.

Our position

PACT turns protection from a private document into a public signal — one that communities recognize and respond to in the moment, when it matters.

03Safe Intervention

4 steps to safely intervene when witnessing an attack.

Recognizing the signal is half of it — knowing what to do is the rest. These are the four steps PACT teaches. Print the flier for your office, break room, or bulletin board.
