So empowering for victims all across the state! Very grateful for all those who were part of seeing this through.

It was a full room for the signing ✍️ of HF 2794, A bill for an act establishing a sexual assault forensic examination center grant program and trust fund.

This session will fundamentally change the way victims services will be funded. There is now a dedicated funding stream that will support victims services.

AND the first SAFE Center will be a model for services throughout our state. 🩵
