💜 From awareness to healing.
During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we stand with survivors and recognize that recovery is not one-size-fits-all.
For Native communities, healing may also embrace the interconnectedness of mind, body, spirit, community, culture, and environment.
Healing can be individual, but it is also strengthened by community. Together, we can help create spaces where survivors feel supported, connected, and empowered on their path forward.
💜 Awareness opens the conversation. Community helps sustain healing.
