Dear Friend,

Extremism has been front and center since we rang in 2025. Extremist attacks conducted by veterans. The unleashing of hate speech on Facebook and Instagram. Nazi salutes on stage at an official inauguration event.

While this is a bleak start to a new year, we at Life After Hate continue to serve an ever-growing number of participants, including military veterans. Day in and day out, we provide education and intervention support as rising numbers of emboldened far-right and ideologically motivated extremists speak out and take unconscionable actions. 

Despite the increased visibility of extremism this year, we know that extremists and hate-fueled ideologies never went away. We remain hopeful that the increasing demand for our services is a sign that extremism is not invincible–we have solutions to combat it. 

The work ahead is urgent, and we cannot do it without your help. Please consider donating today. 

Thank you for your continued faith in our work and your continued support.
