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!
Please help! The #Crime Victims Fund is dwindling. This is a much needed resource for survivors of #childabuse and child advocacy centers across the country. This is a wonderful opportunity to #advocate with #Congress and protect our children!
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
