@CMFrumin Thank you @CMCHenderson and Health Cmte for $$$ for DHS domestic violence services grants and continuing to raise awareness! Domestic Violence homicide is rising in DC and now is not the time to cut critical services. #SupportDVSurvivors
@CMFrumin + Human Services Cmte THANK YOU for $$$ for DHS domestic violence services grants. These services are lifesaving! $200,000 is still needed to prevent cuts DHS is still planning to current programs. #SupportDVSurvivors
@CMFrumin@ChmnMendelson What is still cut in the FY27 Budget for domestic violence and victim services? $200,000 in DHS + $5.1M in OVSJG. These are lifesaving services and must be a priority for the Council. #SupportDVSurvivors
@CMFrumin Thank you @CMLewisGeorgeW4 for highlighting the need to restore funding to Victim Services as a top priority for you and the Council. Fully funded, trauma informed, domestic violence specific services for survivors is non-negotiable. #SupportDVSurvivors
@CMFrumin@cmdonicrawford DV services are funded in part by DHS bc DV is a leading cause of homelessness for women, families, + youth in DC Every. Single. Year.
Survivors reach out to people they trust. We offer trainings for community-based organizations and businesses across DC to help you identify DV, support those navigating it, and connect them to resources. Request a training 👉https://t.co/i4q8b5ZZSE
