The Yellow Rose Foundation exists to reframe and criminalise coercive control across the spectrum of the criminal code. Coercive control is a systemic human rights violation, threatens Personal safety and not merely a domestic violence issue.

We want to support research, advocate for awareness, and push for reform in how technology-based coercive control (TBCC), institutional harm, and psychosocial injury are understood. These forms of harm currently operate invisibly across legal silos, often without recognition, accountability, or justice.
Our work challenges diagnostic labels, gendered assumptions, and fragmented legislation. We advocate for survivor-led reform across privacy law, mental health systems, disability justice, and digital surveillance where coercion is legal but harmful, and where care often becomes control.
We recognize that research is not just a tool it is a form of justice. The lack of data on non-intimate perpetrators, female-led TBCC, and institutional coercion perpetuates invisibility. That’s why our foundation prioritises intersectional, survivor-informed research to fill these gaps and drive evidence-based reform.
We build frameworks that centre autonomy, dignity, and systemic accountability.

We aim to unify the fractured legal landscape and elevate the voices of those most silenced by coercive control beyond their ability to fight back.
Let’s rethink care. Let’s name coercion. Let’s build law that sees the whole pattern.
