Thank you to ASSA ABLOY for collecting and donating 60 backpacks for children served through BHcare's The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services. Your generosity will help local kids head back to school feeling prepared, supported, and ready to learn.

BHcare is proud to have hosted a statewide roundtable discussion last week on the impact of federal funding delays on Connecticut's domestic violence support network.

The conversation brought together Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro, the Connecticut Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and leaders from domestic violence organizations across the state to discuss the challenges funding uncertainty poses for survivors and service providers. Continued delays could result in staffing reductions, service cuts, and barriers to accessing critical support.

Thank you to all who advocate for sustainable funding and ensuring survivors continue to have access to the services and support they deserve.

Domestic violence isn't always visible.

It can happen to anyone, and it is never the survivor's fault. Domestic violence is a pattern of power and control that can affect people of all backgrounds.

The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services provides safe shelter, counseling, and advocacy for survivors. All free and confidential.

If you or someone you love needs support, you don't have to face it alone. Visit bhcare.org for more information.
