| Finding Our Voices is committed to bringing the issue of intimate partner abuse and survivors out of the shadows and into the light. In 2021, in collaboration with the Sunshine Lady Foundation, Finding Our Voices started the "Get Out, Stay Out" program to assist domestic violence survivors with bills and other expenses so that they can get out and stay out of dangerous relationships. Finding Our Voices maintains a website that helps girls and women recognize and avoid dangerous relationships and access available services in order to safety-plan and safely leave such relationships. The website allows users to download, customize and print their own Power and Control Wheels, a tool developed by domestic abuse advocates that helps participants gain perspective and insight into their relationships.During 2022 the Organization helped roughly 250 victims of domestic violence including 65 individuals receiving Get Out Stay Out support. | $0 | $147,736 |
