sydney@reachma.org.<\/a><\/p>\n\t\tHost a training<\/h3>
Empowerment through education is a key part of supporting survivors. Our trainings ensure that those who are working with survivors know how to listen, respond, and act with empathy. Trainings can be designed or customized for any community.<\/p>\n\t\t
Engage your faith community<\/h3>
A faith community can be one of the greatest sources of support for survivors. Our team can work with your community and build upon specific faith-based passions and interests.<\/p>\n\t\t
Join (or start!) a Local Group<\/h3>
Throughout our communities, there are several incredible, local groups gathering to promote healthy relationships and work towards ending domestic violence. Connect with our team to learn more about the work being done in your community.<\/p>\n\t\t
Host an Awareness Event<\/h3>
Whether it’s a neighborhood block party or a poster campaign in your synagogue, awareness campaigns can help survivors feel seen. Raising awareness is often the first step towards deeper engagement work.<\/p>\n
\n\t\tLegislative Advocacy through Community Engagement (LACE )\n\t<\/h2>\n\t
While we support survivors individually, systemic changes, often through state legislative policy, also have a profound impact on survivors. Through our LACE program, we are building networks of passionate community members who seek to advocate through legislative channels. Whether it be through an email or phone call, writing an op-ed, or sharing testimony at a hearing, our voices can have a profound impact.<\/p>\n
