Have you ever thought “why don’t they just leave?”? There are so many reasons survivors go back to their abusers. Children, finances, a sweet gesture, love, not having anywhere else to go, the list is endless. This Domestic Violence Awareness Month we challenge you to learn more about why people stay in abusive relationships, because it is anything but simple.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence please call the Violence Prevention Center 24/7

A piece of feminist history could be yours.

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’re honored to auction a collection of 24 volumes of Ms. Magazine, a powerful record of the women’s movement and the voices that helped change the world.

From Gloria Steinem and the women who paved the way, to the work we continue today, these pages tell a story of courage, resistance, progress, and possibility.

The fight for women’s safety and equality didn’t end with the women who came before us. It continues today, in our communities, in our homes, and in the work we do every day to support survivors of domestic and sexual violence.

And now, you have a chance to own a piece of that history while supporting that work right here in our community. Every dollar we receive from this auction goes directly to helping the clients we serve every single day.

📚 24 volumes.
✊ Decades of feminist history.
🟣 One important month.
❤️ One important cause.

The auction is LIVE! Bid, share, and help keep the work moving forward.
