In South Carolina domestic violence is very common, but yet we have no real prevention programs or counseling programs for women. The representation of women's issues in South Carolina is almost non-existent. We need funding to create prevention programs in our communities and to provide counseling, relocation assistance to victims and help for the offenders as well. This petition is to ask our State legislature to allow funding sot that these programs can be created. The future of Women and children , should be one of our first priorities in this state. Let's please tell SC Legislature that we care and we need this to stop!!!!

I am currently drafting formal requests for the legislative committee to formally review our demands for prevention funding. Call your local representative today and tell them that South Carolina must prioritize these safety programs. We keep the pressure on until they have no choice but to listen.

July 27, 2013

We hit a real milestone today and the momentum shows that our state is finally ready to demand action on these prevention programs. Call your local representative right now and tell them that funding for victim services cannot wait any longer. Post the link to your Facebook page to keep this pressure on our legislators.

This is ridiculous. People are getting hurt every day and nothing changes. Funding is needed now!

Its about time the state did something. Too many women are suffering in silence and have nowhere to go. Please help them.
