๐Ÿ’œ Today is Purple Thursday! ๐Ÿ’œ

Today, we wear purple to stand in solidarity with survivors of domestic violence, honor their strength, and raise awareness about an issue that impacts so many individuals and families in our community and beyond.

Board President, Jenn King shared a simple but powerful reminder: Showing support matters, and raising awareness makes a difference.

Whether youโ€™re wearing purple, starting a conversation, or sharing resources, every action helps remind survivors that they are seen, heard, and not alone. ๐Ÿ’œ

Join us today in wearing purple and standing together against domestic violence.

The world is loud right now. For sexual assault survivors, it can feel like there's nowhere to turn without hearing news and opinions about assault. About consent. About survivors.

You may be remembering your own experience. You may be thinking of a loved one. You may be recognizing that people are quick to write off a victim's lived experience in ways that hurt and assign blame where it doesn't belong.

We stand with survivors.

If the recent news about Cornell has brought up difficult feelings, you don't have to navigate them alone: our crisis line is free, anonymous, and staffed by licensed R**e Crisis Counselors 24/7.

๐Ÿ“ฑCVAC's 24/7 crisis line is always available at (607)722-4256
๐Ÿ“žOur main office line is available during business hours, M-F at (607)723-3200

Please note: in case of an emergency, please dial 911 or another emergency service BEFORE contacting CVAC
