We're Here to Walk Alongside You

March 14, 2019
1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men have been a victim of some form of physical violence by an intimate partner at one point in their lives. If you are one of these people, we're here to walk alongside you. 24/7, 365 days a year, forensic nursing and advocacy services are free of charge. Whether you're in immediate crisis or recovering from a history of abuse, advocates are there to equip you with the support and resources to take back control.

Take a stand by registering today for our fourth annual Walk a Mile in Their Shoes on Saturday, April 6, when we'll walk to support those who have been affected by sexual assault and domestic violence. GBMC's SAFE and DV Program never turns victims away from receiving comprehensive care, forensic examinations, and support services, all at no cost to the patient regardless of their age, gender, or economic status. Click here to learn more about Walk a Mile in Their Shoes.

SAFE and Sound
Your partner has just beaten and strangled you, and assaulted your 8-month-old baby. Two of your other children, ages 3 and 11 years, were there to witness the crime. You live in the United States, but don’t speak the language. You’re alone, terrified, and in pain. You’ve been betrayed by the very person who is supposed to love you most, and your entire life has been turned upside down.
