For #PurpleThursday & #DVAM2026, our staff wore purple to stand with survivors and raise awareness to #EndDomesticViolence. Through our shelter, we provide safety, counseling, and support to help individuals and families rebuild their lives.

Safety planning can help people who cause harm take accountability: recognize triggers, de-escalate, respect space & keep exits clear. Progress means changed behavior.

Domestic violence didn't stop during COVID-19, and neither did advocates. They adapted, supported survivors, and keep showing up. #Every1KnowsSome1 #DVAM2026 #SupportDVSurvivors

Stalking can be a sign of an URGENT, DANGEROUS, and VOLATILE situation! Recognizing and responding to stalking urgently and effectively can prevent future trauma, violence, and even death. Use the SHARP tool to help identify the full scope of harm, recognize risks, and plan for safety. #DVAM2026

One of out favorite things to do is community engagement. Earlier this month, we walked in the Autumn On Parade and had a great time! 💜
