We have been incredibly lucky to have Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan attend events at Tubman and to hear her speak in support of survivors. Thank you for your work to ensure that victim-survivors of violence in Minnesota are believed, supported, and cared for. 💜 "Flanagan has often connected with Minnesotans by sharing tales about her personal life, such as when she recounts what it was like to grow up with a single mom in St. Louis Park who relied on public assistance. And yet for many years, she said, she didn’t feel comfortable talking openly about her family’s history with domestic abuse." https://heyor.ca/7PlrWS
