Farm Friday 🍅🦋🐴🌻☁️ Farm Friday 🍅🦋🐴🌻☁️
A new one-time grant from Lexington-Fayette Urban A new one-time grant from Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government’s Office of Homelessness Prevention and Intervention (OHPI) will support nature-based healing and stability after surviving abuse. Survivors living at the shelter experience the benefits of nature in many ways—from farm walks to nutritious meals. Adult survivors may choose to participate in a focused six-week project that provides a stipend for their contributions to the farm’s day-to-day operations. “The stipend was amazing for me,” shares Eboni, a past stipend project participant. “I was able to save $200, get clothes for my son and me, fix my car, and even buy a washer and dryer for our new apartment.” Funding from OHPI will provide a dollar-for-dollar match on the value of stipends earned by survivors. Matching funds can be applied to self-identified barriers to economic stability. Examples include expenses like car repairs, rental fees, job uniforms, medical care, and savings accounts. “For future participants receiving more, it’ll just double their chances for success,” adds Eboni. 💜 📖 This is one article from our summer Bloom newsletter.

Behind-the-scenes of the photography session with Behind-the-scenes of the photography session with Mary Ann, the survivor story featured in our Summer Bloom newsletter. 💜  Mary Ann’s story is a powerful reminder of the very real threats of intimate partner abuse. And that one person’s voice and determination can make change happen!  “I lay there, my mind racing with a single thought. I don’t want to die. The man staring at me was not the man I had married. I knew I had to run.   The domestic violence order meant nothing to him. He wasted no time violating it, calling and leaving 23 messages within five days. The ankle monitor offered no real protection – he had already decided he was coming for me.  I reached out to James Tipton, my state representative, and left a voicemail about my situation. He called me the next day…”    📖 Read both parts of Mary Ann’s story and how she changed history at the link in bio.
