"It's been a really interesting opportunity to dovetail 30 years of working in gender-based violence, to being now in a position to utilize technology in a way to create safer spaces."
TW: This episode contains mentions of gender-based violence and sexual violence.
In this episode, hear from Mary Lobson, founder of Coralus Venture REES. Mary joins Development Guide MJ Ryan to discuss REES’s trauma-informed, survivor-centered software as a service that gathers critical data to inform gender-based violence prevention. Since launching in September 2020, REES has evolved beyond campuses and is now partnering with the National Hockey League to create a centralized reporting system called the Respect Hockey Culture Center.
They also discuss:
- How REES aims to reduce barriers to reporting and create a more inclusive and safe environment for anyone in the hockey ecosystem.
- The importance of timing, perseverance, and being open to unexpected opportunities in the entrepreneurship journey.
- Mary’s background in social services, and how her ability to follow her vision has contributed to REES’s success.
- Valuing the ability to work on her own terms and listening to feedback while balancing openness to new ideas.
