OK-MIA-IN HER SHOES SIMULATION-September meeting
Ottawa County AnnexWhen: | Thursday, September 18, 6:00 PM |
---|
Our September meeting will focus on Domestic Violence Awareness. Every year, an average of 16 women are fatally shot by an intimate partner in Oklahoma. 60% of female intimate partner homicide victims are killed with a gun. In 2023, 30 victims were killed in murder-suicides and 50 were killed in intimate partner homicides, which is the highest ever recorded. Notably, women comprised 82 percent of intimate partner homicide victims. This continues a trend for Oklahoma consistently ranking in the Top 10 states nationally of women being murdered by men in single-victim-single-offender incidents. This simulation was created to allow individuals to step into a survivor's shoes and navigate the system as they experience domestic violence. From working with an advocate, to navigating the court system, to making life or death choices, participants walk away with a new perspective of what survivors go through to get out of an abusive situation.

TX-Statewide-Survivor's Meeting-VIRTUAL
RSVP for Event LocationWhen: | Thursday, October 16, 7:00 PM |
---|
We invite all Texas survivors of gun violence to attend our Monthly Survivor Meeting. Identifying as a survivor encompasses different experiences: intimidation or receiving threats with a gun, being wounded by a gun, witnessing an act of gun violence, or having someone you know or care about wounded by or killed with a gun. We want to connect with our BROADER Texas survivors and the friends and family that support them. We also want to be a space that offers resources where you can further stay connected with fellow survivors. You may also be new to Moms Demand Action and feel called to be a part of this important movement due to a gun violence event in your life or that of a loved one. We'd love to connect with you, if you have a special talent or service that may align with gun violence prevention and not sure how or where to begin making personal connections to help end gun violence. You are invited and are definitely welcome here.
When: | Thursday, October 16, 7:00 PM |
