Are you worried about your own, your client’s or a loved one’s relationship with a violent ideology or extremist movement?

Exit offers:

  • Support for disengaging from violent ideologies and violent extremist movements
  • We support motivated individuals through Exit to disengage from violent activities
  • We develop our functional methods based on researched data to support Exit operations
  • We support and experiment disengagement in cooperation with other actors, such as organisations, authorities, and communities
  • We gather new information, offer guidance and counselling, bring together and train those working amidst violent extremism and those who may encounter it in their work

We also offer discussion support on Tukinet!

Are you worried about hate speech, violent extremism, or anti-social behavior? Do you need support for concerns caused by a loved one’s violent extremist thinking?

Come chat anonymously with us every other Wednesday from 5:30 to 7 PM! 

In the Exit group chat on Tukinet you can discuss your concerns and thoughts about violent radicalization and related topics.

The Exit chat is an anonymous group discussion. If necessary, you have the opportunity to have a private conversation with a worker about matters that weigh on your mind. In the chat, you can share about yourself and your life as much as you want.

Exit activity support is also available on Tukinet through one-on-one online support relationships for anyone who wants to talk privately and confidentially with a professional. Starting a support relationship requires registering on the service with a pseudonym.

Feel free to get in touch! Please also tell a little about yourself and what kind of situation you are seeking support for.
