The Connection Matters 💜🩵
Domestic violence, sexual assault, and su***de are often discussed as separate issues—but for many survivors, they are deeply connected.
Experiencing violence can leave someone carrying fear, trauma, isolation, shame, financial stress, and a feeling that there is no way out.
When we talk about su***de prevention, we also need to talk about violence prevention.
And when we support survivors of abuse and sexual assault, we need to recognize that emotional safety matters just as much as physical safety.
If someone tells you they are struggling, believe them. Listen without judgment. Help them connect with support.
If you or someone you know is experiencing a suicidal or mental health crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline.
