Information for assistance if you are experiencing domestic violence!

💜 You Are Not Alone – Help for Domestic Violence Survivors 💜
Domestic violence can happen to anyone — regardless of age, gender, race, or income. It isn’t always physical. Abuse can also be emotional, verbal, financial, sexual, or digital.
🚩 Signs of Abuse May Include:
• Controlling behavior or extreme jealousy
• Isolation from friends or family
• Threats or intimidation
• Physical harm or fear of violence
• Monitoring your phone or online activity
If this sounds familiar — you are not alone, and help is available.
📞 If you need support or suspect someone is in danger:
• Victim Assistance, Fort Wayne Police Department
📱 260-427-1205 | 💻 https://www.cityoffortwayne.in.gov/611/Victim-Assistance
• YWCA Northeast Indiana (shelter, advocacy, support)
📱 800-441-4073 – 24/7 Crisis Line
• National Domestic Violence Hotline
📱 800-799-7233 | 📱 Text “START” to 88788 | 💻 thehotline.org
🛑 If you are in immediate danger, call 911.
💡 What You Should Know:
• While you need to file a police report to work with Victim Assistance, FWPD, you don’t have to file one to receive help from our friends at YWCA or Center for Nonviolence.
• Victim Assistance, FWPD is here to walk alongside you through the criminal justice process.
• Leaving an abusive relationship is difficult — we’re here to help you stay safe, whatever you choose.
🔁 We share this message every week as a reminder:
You deserve to feel safe. You deserve support. You are not alone.

This is some good information for Medicare beneficiaries.

Mental health services are an important benefit — if you know what Medicare will cover, and what it won't. Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) helps pay for outpatient mental health services, including one depression screening per year, individual and group psychotherapy with a doctor or other licensed mental health professional, treatment of inappropriate alcohol and drug use, and more. Read the full list of covered mental health services here: https://www.smpresource.org/Handler.ashx?Item_ID=48B02D46-EE5C-4B3F-901C-592601D912A6
