SuN Meals Update 🚨🍓

SuN Meals had an incredible turnout for our first distribution day, and we are so grateful to everyone who came out to participate. As with any new program, we do our best to anticipate needs and prepare accordingly. However, sometimes adjustments are necessary to ensure we can serve families as safely and efficiently as possible.

The turnout at Lemons Mill Elementary far exceeded our expectations, which is wonderful news, but it also created some traffic and logistical challenges. We want to be good neighbors and remain respectful of the residents and businesses surrounding our distribution sites. To help address these concerns, we have updated the meal pickup route for Lemons Mill beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, June 16, 2026.

This new traffic pattern will improve efficiency, help reduce congestion, and allow us to better serve our community. Most importantly, it will help ensure that as many children as possible can receive meals each week while maintaining a safe and organized distribution process.

For those who have registered to pick up meals at Lemons Mill Elementary School, please use Lisle Road and enter through the Lisle Road Soccer Complex. The address for this entrance is 564 Lisle Road in Georgetown. Please see the map below.

As a reminder, meals are for children age 18 and under and are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, based on federal guidelines. Meal distribution at Lemons Mill will take place from 4-6pm while supplies last. While we use registration numbers to prepare for each meal distribution, registration does not guarantee that meals will be available when you arrive. To receive meals, you must be in line before the posted end time.

We appreciate everyone's patience, flexibility, and support as we continue to learn and grow this program. Our goal is to meet the needs of our community, and we look forward to serving families throughout the summer.

Outreach services are available to individuals at any point in their journey, whether they are planning, questioning, surviving, or rebuilding. If you are in need of assistance, please call 502.863.0800.

If you are in need of domestic violence services, please call our 24/7 Crisis Line at 502.370.4414. 💜

If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “I’m scared of my husband,” please don’t brush that off. ⚠️

Being afraid of a partner usually isn’t about normal relationship conflict—it’s about fear of punishment. If you feel like you can’t say no, share your opinion, or make a simple decision because you’re worried about what he’ll do in response, that’s a major red flag.

That “punishment” doesn’t have to be physical. It can look like yelling, destroying things, threatening you, giving the silent treatment, hurting a pet, or using private photos to control you. Fear + control is often the real warning sign. 🧩💜

Have you ever realized something felt “off” only after you named it as control? Share what helped you see it (or what you wish someone had told you).

Today is one of those days where we don't mind the rain!

One of our residents is graduating from Elizabeth's Village and moving into a place she can finally call her own. After overcoming obstacles, rebuilding confidence, and working toward stability, she's taking the next step toward independence.

As she starts this new chapter, we're hoping our incredible community can help make her house feel like home.

We're currently looking for:
🏠 Shower rod
🏠 Kitchen towels
🏠 Dishes & glasses
🏠 Air fryer
🏠 Drying/washing rack
🏠 4 sets of curtains & curtain rods
🏠 Broom & mop
🏠 End tables
🏠 Dresser
🏠 Toaster
🏠 Coffee pot
🏠 Kitchen knife set

If you have any of these items you'd be willing to donate (new or gently used where appropriate), please send us a message.

Every plate, curtain, and piece of furniture represents a fresh start, dignity, and a community that believes survivors deserve the opportunity to thrive!

Thank you for helping us turn a house into a home 💜

The numbers only tell part of the story.

While many cite that 1 in 3 women experience Domestic Violence, only about 1 in 5 report it to law enforcement. Behind every statistic are countless untold stories…reminding us why awareness, support, and safe resources matter more than ever. 💜

If you’re heading into mediation with someone who’s hurt you, it can feel like you’re being asked to “negotiate” your safety.😡

Preparation can make a real difference: read a few different parenting plans ahead of time so you know what’s possible and can walk in with more clarity and confidence. Build in time between drafting and signing; space helps you avoid decisions made under stress or pressure.

And don’t be afraid of details. A more specific parenting plan can limit loopholes and reduce chances for manipulation. Most importantly: no mediator or attorney should rush you into signing something you’re not ready for. 💜

Technology-facilitated abuse (TFA) can be hard to recognize, especially when technology is so deeply woven into our lives. But if you’ve ever felt uneasy about how your partner uses technology around you, your instincts matter.
Ask yourself:

📱 Do they demand access to your passwords or control shared devices?
📍 Do they always seem to know where you are — even when you haven’t told them?
🔒 Do they manage the phone plan, internet account, or smart home devices?
👁️‍🗨️ Do you worry your devices or online accounts are being monitored?

If something feels off, it might be. TFA can deeply affect your sense of safety and privacy, especially for Deaf, DeafBlind, and underserved survivors who may already face barriers to help.

Support is available:
Call The Hotline: 800-799-7233
Chat at thehotline.org or thedeafhotline.org

💜 Healthy Relationships Start Early!

Not all unhealthy relationships leave bruises

Teen dating violence can look like:
• Constant texting or checking in
• Controlling who someone spends time with
• Jealousy disguised as "love"
• Pressure to share passwords or location
• Threats, manipulation, or intimidation

Healthy relationships are built on trust, respect, communication, and boundaries!

As Elizabeth's Village continues expanding prevention and education efforts for youth, we're very committed to helping young people recognize the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and valued.
