Informing the community about intimate partner abu Informing the community about intimate partner abuse and sharing resources is a vital part of ending harm and helping survivors find safety and support. The Community Connectors program trains volunteers to attend events, share information, and engage in meaningful conversations. Since its launch, five dedicated volunteers have represented the mission at several events. Their dedication means greater access to resources for survivors, stronger relationships with local partners, and more pathways to safety. We’re seeking community connectors in Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Estill, Franklin, Garrard, Harrison, Jessamine, Lincoln, Madison, Mercer, Nicholas, Powell, Scott, and Woodford counties. Send us a message if you’re interested in joining the program!

For the past year and a half, @tenebrous_tattoo ha For the past year and a half, @tenebrous_tattoo has offered something deeply significant for survivors—tattoo cover-ups as a tool for healing. “It’s very healing,” says Lynnae, a survivor who recently had a scar covered. “It’s like putting your past behind you. It’s a new step forward.” When Tenebrous opened, owners Joshua and Angela wanted a way to give back to the community. Joshua was covering up work put on a friend by an abuser, and the idea for this partnership began to take shape. “Throughout the totality of my time tattooing, I have seen the value of cover-ups for people who were covering up a negative part of their life,” he shares. Angela adds, “A cover-up is transformative. It’s a rare opportunity to see it actively transform someone as they watch that old work disappear.” Thank you to Joshua and Angela for letting us feature them in our spring Bloom newsletter! Read the full issue at the link in bio. 💜
