Victory! RI Creates Domestic Violence Prevention Fund
[July 14, 2016] – Victory! This July, Governor Raimondo signed the landmark Domestic Violence Prevention Fund bill into law!
Advocating for the Domestic Violence Prevention Fund (DVPF) legislation taught me so much about the power of our voices. I spent so much time lobbying at the State House that the security guards knew me when I entered. I would talk to all of the legislators over and over; I even spent time debating with a few representatives about the bill’s importance.
