Rocky’s Rules for Friendship! 🐶

Rocky knows being a good friend does not have to be hard. You can ask someone to play, help them feel included, or cheer them on.

Rocky’s Friday Challenge: Do one thing this weekend to make a friend smile. 💜

What makes someone a great friend?

Next week is Maria’s birthday. 💜

Maria’s story is still helping people today. Her story starts important conversations, teaches people about healthy relationships, and helps others see the signs of abuse.

By sharing Maria’s story, we can help keep others safe.

In that way, Maria is still saving lives today. 💜

As we get closer to her birthday, help us honor Maria by sharing her voice.

A fun day at Corcoran Country Daze! 💜

Logan and Tyler handed out Rocky cards and coloring books to kids during Family Day. 🐾🎒

“You’re remembering it wrong.”

Gaslighting can make someone question what they saw, heard, or felt.

Healthy relationships should help you trust yourself, not doubt yourself.

Every Maria’s Voice event has an “invisible man” behind the scenes. 💜

Bill is always there to set up the tent, carry the heavy stuff, and lend a hand, no matter how hot the day gets! And River City Days in Chaska definitely brought the heat. ☀️

Thankfully, Lissa came prepared with our new Maria’s Voice fans!

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to cool off, say hello, and have conversations about safety at home. These everyday conversations are where prevention starts.

And thank you, Bill, for always showing up! 💜

Lissa had the honor of throwing out the first pitch at today’s St. Paul Saints game! ⚾️

Thank you to the SouthWest Metro Chamber and the I-94 West Chamber for partnering on this special event, and thank you to everyone who came out to support our mission.

Together, we’re helping build safer homes and healthier relationships. 💜

Good friends help create safe communities. 💜

Sgt. Grant Smith and Bill kicked off Night to Unite in Maple Grove with a simple but powerful reminder: strong communities begin with people who care for one another.

Every act of kindness, every conversation, and every good friend helps build safer homes and healthier relationships.

Keeping cool and making connections! 💜

Maria’s Voice had a wonderful time at PeopleFest in Eden Prairie, spending the day with kids and families while sharing what healthy friendships look like.

Our new games sparked great conversations, with children and parents talking together about kindness, respect, and the qualities of a good friend. Those simple conversations are where prevention begins.
