we did it and the funding for the shelters is finally locked in. i am so grateful for all 154 of you who stepped up to make this happen. keep an eye on things because we still have to make sure they follow through on the new construction.

im still reading every comment that comes in and the stories you all are sharing are so heavy but so important. im working on getting a meeting set up with the center to talk about how we can actually handle the housing gaps they see every day.

im honestly blown away by how much momentum this has gained in such a short time. its proof that people actually care about getting survivors the real housing support they need.

So true. The trauma causes lasting damage. We need more resources for these families.
Too many ppl think if you aren't bleeding you are fine. This needs to change.
My sister went through this and it changed her forever. People dont realize the mental stuff stays way longer than the bruises.
Glad someone is finally talking about the psychological side. It is just as bad as the physical stuff if not worse.
bout time. keep up the good work.

HELL YES. Survivors need better support for housing. Being stuck with an abuser because u have nowhere else to go is a nightmare.
