During Nurses Week (May 6–12), we honor all nurses—but today, we want to shine a special light on Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANEs). 💙

SANEs provide compassionate, trauma-informed care to individuals during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. They combine clinical expertise with empathy, ensuring survivors are supported, heard, and treated with dignity—while also carefully collecting critical forensic evidence when patients choose that path.

Their work is quiet, powerful, and often unseen—but it changes lives.

To every SANE who shows up with strength, kindness, and unwavering dedication: thank you for being a source of safety, healing, and hope.

💚 Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

Our community stands with survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence. Healing from trauma is not something anyone should have to face alone. Counseling offers a safe, confidential space to be heard, supported, and empowered.

Local support is available through the Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault Center, providing compassionate services and resources for survivors and their families.

This month—and every month—let’s continue to normalize mental health care, uplift survivors, and remind one another that help and healing are within reach.

💜 We are beyond grateful for our AMAZING sponsors! 💜

Because of your generosity and belief in our mission, our agency raised $23,530.40 to fund vital supportive services for survivors of sexual assault.

Your support does more than raise funds—it helps survivors access safety, healing, advocacy, and hope. When our community shows up like this, survivors are reminded they are not alone and that their voices matter.

Thank you for standing with survivors and for helping create a future rooted in healing, dignity, and empowerment. 🌟

Together, we closed Sexual Assault Awareness Month with purpose, unity, and love at our Show Your Till charity luncheon. 💙

Because of you, $23,530.40 was raised to support survivors of sexual violence. But even more powerful than the number was the message behind it—one of courage, compassion, and unwavering belief.

You showed survivors that they are not invisible. That their voices matter. That they are believed. And that this community stands beside them—today and always.

Thank you for being part of something that truly changes lives. ✨

As we close out Sexual Assault Awareness Month, our agency reaffirms our unwavering commitment to serving survivors of sexual violence. You are never alone. You are believed. You are seen.

Our Executive Director wanted to reshare her closing remarks from our Show Your Till event. We hope you feel the strength, resilience, and collective support reflected in her words. May this message serve as a reminder that healing is possible, advocacy matters, and our community stands with survivors—today and always.

💙 Why Denim Day Matters 💙
Today we wear denim to stand with survivors and say it clearly: clothing is never consent.
Denim Day, observed during Sexual Assault Awareness Month, challenges victim‑blaming and honors the voices of those impacted by sexual violence.
Wearing jeans is a simple act—but the message is powerful:
✔️ Believe survivors
✔️ Reject harmful myths
✔️ Choose accountability and respect
Awareness leads to action. 💪

💙 Our hearts are full today.
We are deeply grateful to the Daughters of the American Revolution and Marzee Woodward for preparing 31 thoughtful gift bags for our shelter residents.

These small acts of kindness carry so much meaning — they remind our residents that they are seen, valued, and supported by their community. Moments like this help restore hope, dignity, and connection for those who need it most.

Thank you for showing such genuine care and compassion. Your generosity makes a real difference in the lives of the people we serve. 💙✨

At DVSA, we stand with every survivor. Your voice matters, your story matters, and you matter. Surviving is an act of courage, speaking up is an act of strength, and healing is an act of reclaiming your power. Your resilience continues to push our community toward compassion, accountability, and meaningful change.

We know healing isn’t linear, and there is no single “right” way to move forward. What matters is that you deserve safety, care, respect, and a future filled with peace. You are never defined by what happened to you—you are defined by your strength and your capacity to heal.

We see you. We believe you. We support you. You are not alone, and our doors are always open.
