October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

This month, Advocates and Survivors across the nation use #DVAM to not only spread awareness of the severity of domestic violence, but also resources and stories of hope. Hope that we truly can work together to end violence in our relationships, families, and communities.


Everyone knows someone who has been affected by the dangers of domestic violence and has seen its lasting effects on everyone it encounters. Join us this month in spreading awareness, resources, and opportunities to support your local domestic violence shelters.


No one deserves abuse. No matter what your situation is, there is help.

Sleep In Heavenly Peace

SHP

At SHP, we fully believe that a bed is a basic need for the proper physical, emotional, and mental support that a child needs. When it was brought to our attention that the need for beds went far beyond our own neighborhoods, we stepped up and took initiative. We’re a national organization answering the call to a national problem.

If a child needs a bed, we want to make sure they get one. No kid sleeps on the floor in our town!
