About Allied Angels
How Allied Angels Began
There was a moment when the world was spinning. Memories were clouded. The universe did not make sense. Lindsay Casey felt lost and confused. Her entire world shook. And in the middle of that chaos, she needed one thing more than anything else: to know she was not alone.
She understood the humility and embarrassment that followed assault. She remembered thinking she finally understood why women did not report. Why abusers kept going. She barely believed her own voice. A trusted person who had walked that road before her said the words that began to change everything: it is not a crime to be in a place. It is a crime to do what they did to you.
She reported. She reached out to victims services asking for a group she could join. People who had been through it. A community. They did not know where to send her. That absence made her feel sad and unimportant. But it also planted a seed.
She joined the OneBillionRising Campaign and organized a fundraising event with art, music, and poetry readings. She wanted people to feel like they were not alone. And then she saw it: there were others out there just like her. Paralyzed by fear. Nowhere safe to share. No long-term support after the sharing was done.
She watched…
women’s night terrors stop
agoraphobia ease
passion and worthiness grow as survivors supported each other
That is when she knew something real could be built.
Survivors supporting survivors was the missing link.
Lindsay had just finished her Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction. The research pointed clearly in one direction: being taught by someone like you has more impact on learning and growth than almost any other factor. That was the key. That was the path to healing and to breaking the cycle.
She looked at the structure of the AA program and began to build something like it for survivors of abuse. The 12 Wings formed. Allied Angels arose. The Flight Path took shape.
She wants every person who finds this program to know they are not alone. That they do not have to stay stuck in a cycle that hurts them. That they can make choices to change. And that they do not have to do any of it by themselves.

People Are Frequently Asking Some Questions
Questions are welcome here. We believe clarity builds safety, and understanding helps you decide what feels right for you as you explore our community.
How do I sign up?
You can start by sharing your contact information through our Connect With Us page and letting us know what you are interested in. We will follow up with next steps when you are ready.
You are also welcome to attend any of our scheduled events. You do not need to sign up in advance to come to The Gathering. Visit our Event Schedule page to see upcoming times and locations.
How much does it cost?
There are no membership fees. Participation in all Allied Angels programs is completely free. You can donate if you have funds available and want to support the mission, but it is never required for attendance or participation.
What is the difference between The Gathering and The Flight Club?
The Gathering is our quarterly community celebration open to everyone. It is a casual, no-pressure event where we come together to celebrate milestones, earn recognition for Feathers, Spark Charms, and Wing Patches, and simply be in community with people who understand. No commitment required to attend.
The Flight Club is our weekly structured healing circle where Rising Angels work through the Flight Path curriculum with peer support, earn their 12 Wings, and are matched with an Allied Angel for ongoing one-on-one mentorship. The Flight Club is where the deeper work happens, and it does require completing your Pre-Flight Discovery form to join.
Do I have to share my story?
Never. You share only what you are ready to share, only when you are ready to share it. Allied Angels operates under The Shadows Rule: your story is yours. We will never pressure you to speak before you feel safe, and we will never share your story without your explicit written consent.
What is an Allied Angel?
An Allied Angel is a peer mentor who has walked their own journey from surviving to thriving. They are not therapists or counselors. They are people who have been through it and are ready to walk alongside someone else who is just beginning. Every Allied Angel is trained in the Flight Path curriculum and operates within clear peer-support boundaries.
Is Allied Angels a crisis service?
No. Allied Angels is a peer mentorship and community program. We do not provide emergency services, clinical mental health support, or crisis intervention. If you are in immediate danger please call 911. For crisis support please contact the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988. Your Allied Angel can connect you with referrals to professional services upon request.
Where is Allied Angels located?
Allied Angels is headquartered in Casper, Wyoming. The Flight Club meets weekly at St. Mark’s Church (come in the back door by the kitchen). The Gathering location changes each quarter and is announced on our website and Facebook page. We are building toward a Wyoming-first expansion model with chapters planned for additional communities.

What They’re Saying About Allied Angels
Every story shared reflects courage, growth, and connection. These voices remind us that healing is not linear, but it is possible together.
“At the Walk and Talk I was met with compassion and understanding from other DV survivors. It was healing to be able to talk about what I have been going through and be reminded I am not alone.”
Amber
“The hardest part of being in an abusive relationship is feeling like you cannot do any better, regardless of what the back of your mind says. Someone reaching in and conversing with me changed everything for the better.”
