People know about football concussions. What about domestic violence? 🧠

We are excited to see ODVN's Rachel Ramirez along with our partners at the Ohio Alliance to End Sexual Violence featured in this important Columbus Dispatch story on the brain injuries survivors face, and how often they go undiagnosed.

Everyone has heard about brain injuries in sports. But repeated blows to the head and strangulations in domestic violence is now gaining recognition.

Fall showed up in a w**e glass. 🍎🍷

Stop by Old Dog Alehouse & Brewery this month, order an Apple C***r Sangria, and help us Raise the Bar for survivors across Ohio.

October is domestic violence awareness month. Casa, along with many bars and breweries across the state are partnering with Ohio Domestic Violence Network for their Raise the Bar Campaign.
For the month of October $1 for every Free Spirit Margarita will be donated to ODVN’s cause. If you’re not familiar, this drink is our N/A margarita option made with Dhōs zero proof spirit. Crafted with botanicals to mimic the earthy, peppery flavors of traditional agave spirits, without the alcohol.
Nearly 75,000 survivors received advocacy, housing, support groups, transportation, and other services last year from the work done by ODVN.
We hope you will join us this month in support of their cause. Ask your server to try the Free Spirit Margarita and sub fresh lime cordial!
