Description

Ameé has been an advocate for raising awareness about domestic violence, in part due to her personal experience with financial and emotional abuse. While it seems help is just a phone call away for people in a domestic violence situation but there is also uncertainty of what happens when you do ask for help from strangers. And as we know from human behavior, we tend to chose the devil we know over the one we don’t. And so when we don’t understand how the resources work, we might be afraid to use them. That’s why this episode's guest is Ginny Ware, the Home Safe Program Director from New Beginnings – a Seattle area organization with a mission to empower survivors of domestic violence and to raise community aware and actions to end it. Ginny shares how these agencies and talks about what to expect when you contact them for help so that hopefully fewer people will be afraid to use them to help leave an abusive situation. In this episode, you will hear:Is there a threshold for when a person may reach out to get help with there situationWhat has changed in the service delivery for agencies like this during COVIDOverview of the services available for people in a domestic violence situationWhat happens when someone calls the 24-hour helplineHow can people support organizations like thisHow can domestic and gender-based violence be eliminated in our communitiesResourcesNew Beginnings Website 24-hour Help Line: 206.522.9472National Domestic Violence Hotline 1.800.799.7233Northwest Justice Project This is a public episode.
