Remember, you are there to support your loved one, not to rescue or save them. Domestic violence is extremely complex and someone in a position to support a survivor can play a crucial role in empowering them to stay safe or even leave for good. 💜

As the City of North Port begins its budget season, the focus is on public input. Residents will have a variety of ways to get involved. Public input during the budget process makes a real difference. Visit NorthPortFL.gov/BudgetInput for more information.

Keep the momentum going in the work to save VOCA! Thank you to those of you who've already made calls to the 8 Congressional leaders encouraging them to get VOCA back on track. Please ask your MDT members, Board members, supporters, friends and family to do the same.
If you haven't had the chance to make calls, there's still time. No one knows better than you the impact of VOCA cuts on your center, chapter and the kids on whose behalf we all work. Stand firm in that in telling your story.
Please share this with your network and ask them to do the same!

Washington talks about budgets, but crime victims need action. Victims and survivors urge House and Senate Leadership, Republicans and Democrats, working together, as they always have to protect crime victims and make CVF whole. #SupportSurvivors #SaveVOCA
