It's Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to bring awareness to this important issue, celebrate survivors, grieve those we’ve lost, and share resources so that others may come out from the shadow of violence and stigma. Find helpful resources at https://t.co/VZ2YM8UBU4.

Thanks to Lauren Basse, OAR's Fairfax office has a new library for OAR clients: The Mike Malovic Giving Library. It is full of useful books to help keep clients focused on success. Mike Malovic was a long-term OAR supporter, and his daughter honors his memory with this gift.
