Purpose
Founded by Rahm Emanuel, former Ambassador and Mayor of Chicago, and John C. Sciaccotta, Senior Partner of Aronberg Goldgehn and Past President of The Chicago Bar Association, WINGS Men’s Alliance believes that ending domestic violence requires men to be part of the solution.
The alliance aims to mobilize men as allies, advocates, and leaders in the effort to end domestic violence and create safer, more equitable communities. Our purpose is to educate, engage, and empower men to challenge harmful behaviors, support survivors, and model positive masculinity that promotes accountability, compassion, and respect in all relationships.
WINGS Men’s Alliance operates with the endorsement of the Chicago Bar Association’s Domestic Violence Committee.
