💜 BREAK THE SILENCE. END THE CYCLE. STAND WITH SURVIVORS. 💜

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and the NAACP Springfield, MO Branch stands in solidarity with every survivor, every family impacted, and every individual working to break the cycle of abuse.

Domestic violence does not discriminate. It impacts people of every race, background, age, and economic status. Too often, survivors suffer in silence because of fear, shame, or a lack of support.

We want you to know: YOU ARE NOT ALONE. 💜

Your safety matters.
Your voice matters.
Your story matters.
Your life matters.

As a community, we have a responsibility to do more than raise awareness. We must believe survivors, educate ourselves, recognize the warning signs, hold abusers accountable, and create safe spaces where healing can begin.

💜 Love should NEVER hurt.
💜 Abuse is NEVER acceptable.
💜 Silence should NEVER be the only option.

At the NAACP Springfield Branch, we believe strong communities are built when we protect, uplift, and stand beside those who need us most.

If you or someone you know needs support:

📞 National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)

💜 Together, we can break the silence, break the cycle, and build a safer future for all.

Come join us next Saturday (10/24) at Silver Springs Park as we care for the green space along the African American Heritage trail. We will be planting fruit trees this year that can grow to become an invaluable resource to our community, especially our unhoused brothers and sisters.

We had an excellent time in the Spring, and we look forward to another wonderful time of caring for our community!
