Volare @volare-empowers.bsky.social · 03/10/2025
These numbers aren’t exhaustive or all-inclusive. Domestic violence still remains an underreported crime, and many survivors don’t feel safe engaging in systems and services.

Periodic reminder: don’t photo/film unhoused people/spaces w/out permission. Its like walking into someone’s bedroom & taking pics. It’s creepy, humiliating & dehumanizing. Many unhoused people are escaping violence & don’t want their faces on the internet. We hear this a lot from unhoused folks.
