Hello, again!
As I write this letter in 2022, it is hard to ignore that 2021 was another challenging year for many of us. We know now that, as the pandemic raged across the world in 2021 (and is still around in 2022), crime increased in many parts of the United States and in many parts of the world. Mass shootings have also increased in frequency. Domestic violence has gotten worse. It seems safe to assume that the kinds of abuse people suffer through psychopathy have not gotten better. To the extent that people are more likely to mistreat others when they are feeling stressed, when they are desperate, this principle may well apply to people with psychopathy.
Volunteers have worked hard in 2021 to fulfill the Foundation’s Mission for another year. Our mission statement has changed very little in the years since it was first written, our mission statement continues to guide our efforts in achieving our goal of reducing the negative impact of psychopathy on society and it is used to measure our success.
Aftermath Mission
The Aftermath: Surviving Psychopathy Foundation is dedicated to educating the public regarding the nature of psychopathy and its cost to individuals and society. We seek to support the families and victims of those impacted by psychopathy. We support research that aims to: prevent or minimize the development of psychopathic traits, reduce the effects of psychopathic traits, and understand and treat the aftermath of psychopathy. Our ultimate goal is to reduce the negative impact of psychopathy on the families and victims of psychopathic individuals.
In 2021, we received $4,371.03 (see breakdown in Figure 1). Our revenue came primarily from membership fees/donations ($3583) and Giving Tuesday donations ($740).
In 2021, our total fixed expenses were $1,804.67 (see breakdown in Figure 2). The three largest expenditures were: insurance for our Board of Directors (BOD; $834), web-fees (e.g., Mailchimp, HostGator, Sound Cloud; $496), and fees relating to our annual reports; $261).
