Last week, our Executive Director and Victim Advocate had the opportunity to attend Partners for Change, an impactful training focused on strengthening our response to domestic violence and improving the safety of survivors in our communities.

During the training, they learned more about the dangers of strangulation, the Lethality Assessment Protocol (LAP), and the critical role these tools play in identifying high-risk situations and helping reduce domestic violence-related homicides across Oklahoma.

They also had the opportunity to hear directly from homicide survivors, gaining a deeper understanding of the devastating and lasting impact domestic violence can have, not only on individuals, but on entire families and generations.

Every opportunity to learn makes us better advocates. Every new tool and piece of knowledge can help us recognize danger sooner, respond more effectively, and ultimately save lives.

We are grateful for opportunities like Partners for Change that equip those working in the field with the knowledge, compassion, and resources needed to create safer communities.

💜 Help Support Our Shelter & the Families We Serve 💜

We’re putting together an Amazon Wishlist to help keep our shelter stocked with the everyday essentials our residents need. We serve all victims of violence, with a special focus on women and children, including children newborn through 18 years old who are staying with us.

🛒 Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2C0URJG4TD7TW/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex?

Our Wishlist includes things like personal hygiene items, children’s items, household supplies, comfort items, and other essentials we use every day.

And it doesn’t have to come from Amazon! 💜

If you’re out shopping and think of us, we are always grateful for donations of items from our Wishlist or other everyday necessities you know a shelter can use. Sometimes the simplest things, like toiletries, laundry supplies, paper products, snacks, children's items, and personal care products, are the things we go through the fastest.

Whether you purchase something from our Wishlist, pick something up while you’re out, or simply share this post, you are helping us provide a safe and supportive environment for victims and their children during an incredibly difficult time.

Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference. Thank you for thinking of us. 💜
