Call to action graphic reading "Tell Congress to #SupportSurvivors. Federal funding is vital for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault and the programs that support them. Survivors need access to services and affordable health care."
🚨 New Mexico - the Government shutdown is upon us.
Funding delays can have devastating impacts on survivors. Local programs are reliant on federal funding and have minimal cash reserves. Even a few weeks of a funding delay equals reduced services, layoffs, and eventually program closures.

By investing in community-led solutions, we're not just preventing harm, but we are creating stronger communities as a whole.
Thank you New Mexico Department of Health for introducing these funds into our communities and investing in both intervention and prevention!
"The broader violence prevention is us moving upstream, because healthier communities are safer communities and sexual violence doesn’t exist when we have healthy and safe communities." - Alexandria Taylor, NMCSAP Executive Director

A quote by Jess Michaels "We will not stop until survivors voices shape justice, transform culture, and define the future."
In light of ongoing news about sexual violence, it's incredibly important to keep the stories & wisdom of survivors as the focus.
This isn't just a moment, but a movement for healing & justice.
Bold white text reads "The antidote to violence is joy and connection. - Alexandria Taylor Executive Director NMCSAP" over a teal gradient background
The programs will use these funds to administer violence prevention programs, focusing on a public health approach to preventing harmful behavior!
We are grateful to the NM State Legislature, NM Department of Health, and everyone who makes this work possible ❤️
We are incredibly proud to be featured in a recent article by The Source NM. The article highlights the $1.5m sent to our partner orgs through the Violence Intervention Fund and the tremendous impact it has on our state!

Not engaging with the data as a whole prevents us from focusing on real solutions that address the root causes of sexual violence in our state. Misuse of the data risks perpetuating the very harm that the survey shows is experienced by so many New Mexicans of all genders.

While the Crime Victimization report found that more than half of people in NM have experienced sexual violence, it also found that transgender New Mexicans were 3X more likely to have experienced sexual violence than cisgender people. 4/6

Statement reading "Data Should be Used to Bolster Prevention not Politicize Survivors & Attack Transgender Communities."
Recently a NM State Senator referenced a finding from our NM Crime Victimization Report
We welcome the use of this data in policy making, but the stat was used to implied trans women pose a danger to cis women which is harmful, untrue, & not supported by the report.
Here's our full statement 🧵1/6
While the Crime Victimization report found that more than half of people in NM have experienced sexual violence, it also found that transgender New Mexicans were 3X more likely to have experienced sexual violence than cisgender people. 4/6
