Domestic violence rarely impacts just one person. Its effects can ripple through families, friendships, and entire communities, but support can ripple outward, too. 💜

In our August newsletter, Beyond the Survivor: The Ripple Effects of Domestic Violence, we explore what those ripple effects can look like and, more importantly, how each of us can be part of the support survivors need.

Inside, you'll find:
💜 Our latest My Voice interview with Linda Mitchell
💜 Practical guidance for helping someone experiencing domestic violence
💜 Ways to support FAFV through our upcoming Charity Bowling Night
💜 Information about what domestic violence programs really need from their communities
Take a few minutes to read, learn, and consider how you can help create ripples of support in our community.
