The SAFE Shelter Act ensures trafficking survivors can have a safe place to escape to and heal. @GovKathyHochul , sign the SAFE Shelter Act today so trafficking survivors, who often seek shelter without children, can find safety. #SAFEShelterNY
David Lombardo@poozer87

Does @GovKathyHochul support the domestic violence survivor support system? A bill waiting on her desk ensures shelters are reimbursed for beds provided to single, adult survivors of domestic violence. We highlighted this issue with @NYSCADV. capitolpressroom.org/2024/07/16/ser…

Grateful to @AM_AndrewHevesi @agounardes for their bold leadership in passing the SAFE Shelter Act & for their commitment to helping all survivors access domestic violence shelters. It's time for @KathyHochul to sign this bill into law & help more survivors find safety.

I miss the @mets so much. The joys of Sept-Oct with them were the best in years. They were fun, they were so supportive of one another, they smiled, they hugged, they won amazing games! I need a new "drug" until February.

Safe Horizon
Safe Horizon@SafeHorizon·
Budget cuts mean fewer advocates for crime victims. Over 40 precincts experienced changes in service due to the lack of funding. Thank you @LincolnRestler for drawing attention to this. We ask the City Council to join us in calling for the Mayor to restore the cut. #NYCNeedsCVAP

I joined @NBCAFV candlelight vigil for Domestic Violence Awareness Month. There were 1K DV 911 calls in @NYPD90Pct last year. We must stop this violence. Mayor cut $3M from @SafeHorizon's crime victim advocate program. 25% of precincts no longer have this critical resource.

It took years before I realized I’m a survivor of DV and years to leave. Many men are silenced by a toxically patriarchal culture and deeply ashamed. Women experience it worst. I’m still healing. You can too. You’re not alone. Call 211.

October is #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth. Leaving an abusive relationship can be difficult. Escaping abuse is even harder if you don’t have the right support. Not sure where to turn? Call 211 to get connected to resources in your area.

Great news for NYC! Next step is using the funds from this economic boost to restore funding to public safety programs like CVAP and more! #NYCNeedsCVAP

@NYCDHS Today, we joined @newdestinyorg and @SafeHorizon to testify at the General Welfare/Gender & Equity Committees Joint Hearing on services for DV survivors in shelters. Together, we’re advocating for the support these families urgently need.
