How to return a Vector3 from Touched?

So I use Gravity Controller which controls the player’s Gravity using a Vector3 to set the correct force.

I already have a latch function which allows to player to change their gravity in order to latch to a wall under certain parameters. This is it:

Summary 
function latch()
	
	local origin = HRP.Position
	local direction = HRP.CFrame.LookVector * REACH

	local result = Workspace:Raycast(origin, direction, rayParams)
	if not result then return end

	latchingToWall = result.Normal
	wait(0.5)
	latchingToWall = nil
end

It uses Raycasting and if there are results then the players gravity is changed to those results.

What I basically am looking for is a way to do this same thing with .Touched.

I know that in raycasting result.normal returns a Vector3, so that is basically what I need to do within a Touched function that I am using, but I am not sure how. This is that function:

Summary 
for i, v in pairs(character:GetChildren()) do 
			if v:IsA("BasePart") then
				local touchcon
				touchcon = v.Touched:Connect(function(touch)
					if not character:FindFirstChild(touch.Name) then
						Flying = false
						print("flying false do to touch")
						touchcon:Disconnect()
					end
				end)
			end
		end

I need a Vector3 from the point of contact that Touched runs on.
