October is a time to stand together for survivors and victims of domestic violence, raise awareness, and remind those impacted that they are not alone. Sometimes, the unconditional love and comfort of our furry friends can make all the difference. 🐾💜

Through our Purple Pets for a Cause campaign, we're inviting YOU to join us! Dress your pets in purple, snap a picture, and help us show our community that we stand with survivors and support safe, healthy relationships for everyone.

📸 How to participate:

Let's make some noise, spread awareness, and show survivors that our community stands with them. Because every paw, every voice, and every act of support matters. 💜🐾

Thank you, Olive and Eevee, for helping us kick off this special campaign!

1.09 million.
That’s more than a number.

Those are mothers, daughters, sisters, friends, coworkers, and neighbors.

Across Tennessee, millions of women have experienced intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and/or stalking in their lifetime. Behind every statistic is a story, and every survivor deserves to be heard, believed, supported, and safe.

At Branch House, we stand with survivors and work alongside our community to provide hope, support, resources, and a path forward.

This October, we’re asking our community to stand with survivors. Learn the signs. Speak up. Help create a community where survivors know they are not alone.

Stand with survivors. 💜

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. 💜

This month, we’re shining a light on domestic violence, supporting survivors, and reminding our community that awareness can lead to action.

Domestic violence doesn’t always look the way we expect. It can be physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, or financial. Sometimes the signs are visible. Sometimes they aren’t.

That’s why it starts with knowing.
Know it. Recognize it. Talk about it.

When we learn the signs, listen without judgment, believe survivors, and connect people to support, we help create safer communities.

This October, we invite you to stand with survivors, strengthen Tennessee, and be part of the conversation.

💜 You are not alone. Help is available.
