LGBTQIA+ survivors of sexual and intimate partner violence often face additional barriers to receiving the support they deserve. Let's not make it harder than it already is.

Support LGBTQIA+ survivors by:
Listening without judgment.
Using supportive phrases like, "I believe you."
Honoring a person's gender identity, sexual orientation and preferred pronouns.

At CVS, we listen and we don't judge. We're just here to help.
