The National Consortium of Torture Treatment Programs (NCTTP) advances the knowledge, technical capacities and resources devoted to the care of torture survivors and acts collectively to prevent torture worldwide.
The primary purpose of the Consortium is to foster the development, in quality as well as quantity, of specialized programs devoted to caring for survivors of torture. Member organizations share knowledge and expertise through regular communication and cooperation, building stronger individual organizations as well as a stronger network of care.
All Consortium members conduct their programs with the highest professional standards, using a variety of clinical approaches and theoretical frameworks.
The Consortium was founded in 1998. There are currently 28 full members, 3 provisional members, and 3 associate member organizations. Mary Fabri, Senior Director of the Marjorie Kovler Center for the Treatment of Survivors of Torture, serves as President of the Consortium.
