Because of the presence of homophobia within many formal systems, it is essential that service providers evaluate their own agency culture and service delivery to ensure their organization is a safe space for LGBTQ+ survivors and victims.

Understanding the Impacts of Domestic Violence on Survivors

The Depp v. Heard trial has been trauma activating for many survivors. At this moment when domestic violence is receiving a lot of sensationalized attention throughout the various forms of media, we affirm the need for attention on concrete solutions—those that support survivors, educate on the realities of domestic violence, and prevent it from occurring in the first place.
