    About Us

    Founded in 2023, Vivo Alliance was born out of the pressing need to address the systemic flaws within the Puerto Rican justice system that help to perpetuate sexual violence. Inspired by our co-founder Karla Hernandez's relentless, yet fruitless pursuit of justice after being brutally attacked and sexually assaulted in Dec. 2020, we are dedicated to amplifying the voices of survivors, raising public awareness, and advocating for systemic changes that strengthen victims' rights and ensure that perpetrators are prosecuted.
