Thank You @CMCharlesAllen for raising the priority of funding domestic violence and victim services. These services save lives! Your support helped restore victims services in OVSJG. Survivors will still lose housing and services if DHS DV and EHVs are not restored.

TY @ChmnMendelson for restoring services funding in the local budget. These funds are necessary to keep DV survivor services open. More $$$ is needed to maintain current services in OVSJG. DHS DV services are still cut $200k & survivors will lose housing if EHVs are not funded.

Happy Pride, DC. 🌈 LGBTQ people experience intimate partner violence at rates equal to or higher than cis-het communities, while facing extra barriers to support. Safety should never depend on who you love. dccadv.org/budget-platform/

Take a few seconds to send a letter to DC Council members to urge them to restore life-impacting funds for survivors.

@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
