💜 April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month 💜 Did you know that 1 in 3 women worldwide have experienced some form of sexual violence? This statistic is staggering, and it's why raising awareness is crucial. By shedding light on the realities of sexual assault, we can break the cycle of silence and empower survivors to seek help and healing. At And Rise, we stand with survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and trauma. We believe in providing support, resources, and a safe space for women to rebuild their lives. Together, let's raise our voices, educate others, and advocate for change. 💪 If you or someone you know is in need of support, please visit our website at www.womenrisechicago.org for resources and information on how we can help.

🌟✨🌱 Join our supportive community! 🌱✨🌟 This support group's focus will be on chronic illness, chronic pain, and medical trauma. We may talk about one, two, or all three of those in a week depending on the needs of attendees and the makeup of the group. In this group, we will not focus on symptoms, or provide information about treatment, but discuss the physical and emotional difficulties chronic pain and illness can take, in a group of like-minded individuals. Our Medical trauma segment will have similarities, but we will also give space to discuss the ways in which the medical community caused us disappointment but also supporting one another to create community and to give one another hope. We will also discuss finding strategies to get the most out of our Healthcare and learning to become our own best advocates. 🔗 Link: https://lnkd.in/g6urnRTx #chronicpain #supportgroup #andrise #chicagononprofit #chicagoland #chicago

Safety First! A safety plan is a personalized, practical strategy designed to help individuals protect themselves and their children from further harm in situations involving domestic violence. Here are some ways to use a safety plan, along with guidance on how to make one and when to implement it: Plan Your Escape Route: Identify safe exits from your home in case of emergency. Practice using them. Establish Secret Signals: Create codes or signals with trusted friends or family members to ask for help discreetly. Know Emergency Contacts: Keep a list of emergency numbers handy, including local law enforcement and domestic violence hotlines. Find out about nearby shelters. Secure Financial Resources: Set aside cash, open a separate bank account, or access resources like emergency funds and financial assistance programs. Protect Your Online Presence: Change passwords regularly, block abusers on social media, and consider using private browsing modes. Plan Alternative Transportation: Arrange alternative transportation options in case the abuser controls access to vehicles. Keep Important Documents Safe: Store copies of important documents like identification, passports, and legal papers in a safe place outside the home. Review and Update Regularly: Safety plans should evolve with your circumstances. Review and update yours regularly, especially if there are changes in the level of risk or living situation. When to Implement the Plan: Trust your instincts. If you feel unsafe, if violence escalates, or if you're planning to leave, it's time to put your safety plan into action. If you are searching for more resources or ways to get support, check out the &Rise website to see how we can help you through your healing journey. You're not alone. #safetyplan #domesticviolenceawareness #andrise #chicagononprofit #empowerwomen
