We conclude our discussion with Jane Graham Jennings, Executive Director of The Women's Community in Wausau, discussing the funding challenges faced by domestic violence support organizations. Despite losing significant federal funding, state legislators have provided some short-term relief. Jane highlights the dire need for increased funding amidst rising domestic violence homicides. She encourages public advocacy and awareness, stressing that silence perpetuates harm. October's Domestic Violence Awareness Month events include a clothesline project and workshops on cultural barriers to seeking help. Community support is crucial, with a donor matching donations up to $10,000 this month. Reach out, donate, and stay informed.
