Update: 2024-10-15
Description
Trigger Warning: This podcast contains references to sensitive themes, such as domestic and intimate-partner violence and sexual assault, which may be distressing to some individuals.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, so "Build Me Up" is taking the opportunity to highlight Bemidji's Northwoods Battered Women's Shelter and the influential work that they do surrounding intimate-partner violence. As one in four women, as well as one in seven men experience domestic violence within their lifetimes, it's important to discuss how everyone can play a role in supporting survivors and fostering a community rooted in safety and respect.
If you or someone you know is experience domestic violence, please call 1-800-799-7233 or text START to 88788 to connect with the National Domestic Violence Hotline for help. Representatives are also available online to assist via chat.
