The House Ways and Means Committee voted to approve draft tax legislation earlier today that could be enacted by summer. CAWC is in full support of the National Council of Nonprofits advocating against this legislation. We need your help.
We had an amazing night! Thank you to @soxcharities for your incredible support as always, and to @MOR_Docs and @RushMedical for generously sponsoring the Community Clubhouse for CAWC!
This morning, CAWC's Executive Director will be on @WBEZ at 11am to discuss a fatal #domesticviolence shooting and systemic failures to retrieve firearms from accused abusers. Tune in to learn more and discover ways you can help advocate for better protection of survivors.

Oct is #DVAwarenessMonth. The impact of DV reaches further than you think - we are all influenced by systemic patterns, societal prejudices, and social norms that perpetuate the cycle of violence. It is time to be loud and raise our voices to establish a safer, equitable world.

This Independence Day, CAWC is reflecting on what freedom really means. No matter what, CAWC is here to support survivors as they regain control of their lives, and we will empower them to take ownership in all decisions about their health and wellbeing.
In recognition of Independence Day, our administrative office will be closed tomorrow, July 4. Our emergency hotline remains open. If you are in need of urgent domestic violence services, please call us at (773) 278-4566.
As the #DeppVsHeard case comes to a close, CAWC knows that this time has been difficult for survivors. We want you to know that we see you, we hear you, and we will always believe and stand with survivors. #EndDomesticViolence
