Hello, Deashiaterrell, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Association for the Prevention of Torture
The topic I have chosen is entitled The Association for the Prevention of Torture. The APT was founded in 1977 by a man named Jean-Jacques Gautier. During that time the association was called the Swiss Committee Against Torture. The main goal of this association is to bring awareness to try and prevent the mistreatment of immigrants. Their challenges include trying to work with the United Nations in ensuring that all immigrants are treated fairly and given equal opportunity. This association has helped release detainees through using a regulated protocol to communicate with other nations and change their detention policies. I will be contributing the mission of this association along with examples of what kind of mistreatment the individuals are subjected to.

There are numerous journal articles and government websites that can inform citizens about this association and its efforts to inspire, inform and persuade people into preventing torture/mistreatment of others. This article can help us understand that no human should be treated inhumanely. We should all be willing to help when it comes to making sure that other humans are treated fairly and equally to make a better life for themselves. Torture is banned and no human should have to endure it but it still occurs in some places.
