We are heartbroken by the devastating loss of Alexandra Straccia.

We extend our deepest condolences to Alexandra's family, friends, and all those whose lives have been touched by this tragedy.

People with disabilities experience domestic violence at disproportionately high rates and often face additional barriers to accessing safety, support, and resources. We remember Alexandra and continue working toward a future where everyone can live free from abuse.

If you or someone you know needs support, the statewide confidential 24/7 Victims of Crime Helpline is available at 1-800-494-8100.💜
