Thank you to Mayor Spiller & the entire Montclair Town Council for recognizing October 2022 as #DVAM. Part of the work we do at SOFIA is dispelling the stigma of abusive relationships. Public affirmation & recommitting to the work is important! We appreciate this proclamation! 💜

Raising awareness during October is so important and can be supportive. It can also feel overwhelming to see and hear so many reminders of abuse. Remember that you don’t owe anyone your story. Take care of yourself! 💜 #SupportSOFIA image by @selfloverainbow

One in seven children live with domestic violence. This is not a small number of affected students. #SupportSOFIA

Lockdown drills can be damaging for kids who've experienced trauma outside of school, including domestic violence. One student in Chicago told me that crouching down in the dark in total silence triggers memories of her dad's abuse. My latest: thetrace.org/2022/10/lockdo…

We spent some time with @supportsofia promoting our events and advocacy at #Montclair’s NNO. It was a productive evening, and this is your reminder that we all know someone in an abusive relationship. Empathy and awareness go a long way! #SupportSOFIA

Relationships exist on a spectrum. Knowing the strengths of a healthy relationship is just as important as understanding the warning signs of an unhealthy relationship. #SupportSOFIA

Hopefully this case will bring more attention and help more abuse victims get fair treatment. 💜

The judge in Julie Valadez’s custody case found her disruptive, questioned her credibility and put out a warrant for her arrest. A rare appellate victory is now giving her case a fresh look, but she still is fighting for her four children. ow.ly/K30750I4RoW #SurvivorSpeaks
