What is your most memorable story serving members of dv/sa? What was memorable about it? Rewarding, challenging, inspiring?
It is a great challenge to help women who suffer domestic violence because there are many barriers that need to be removed. When they leave here and go to an apartment or rent a room it is a great step of independence for them.
Dear community partners and members,
The Oregon Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence (OCADSV) cautions the use of the at-home rape kits provided by MeToo Kit company. The MeToo Kit company, as mentioned on their website "is founded on the principle that [survivors] should be able to take back control." However, OCADSV believes that the at-home kits have the potential to cause harm to survivors.
