When an abuser senses they are losing control, they will often retaliate in harmful ways. If you or a loved one are considering leaving an abusive relationship, help is available near you: sccadvasa.org/get-help

Every survivor deserves safety and stability.
Legal aid gives survivors the guidance, support, and advocacy they need to regain control over their lives.

*October Only*

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month (#dvam)

🎮 Here are three crossword puzzles with a domestic violence theme.

FYI: These puzzles are pretty tough.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience abuse in their lifetime.

If you or someone you know is being abused, call the National DV Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). #DVAM

October is #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth, but the reality of intimate partner violence extends far beyond these 31 days.

As headlines and soundbites fill the news cycle, let's stay focused on what really matters: the lived experiences of survivors in all our communities.

#DVAM
🎃 For #Halloween and #DVAM we offer a short quiz:

🧛🏽 "What kind of monster is your boyfriend?"

(We should probably add a link to our #itchio page so you can see some of the many free games available. These were created by talented & creative folk from communities around the world. 🏆)

Thank you for sharing this Brian.

As of this morning, both games have been re-indexed!
Thank you for sharing this Elizabeth.

Good news: both of the games have been re-indexed as of this morning!

Today I learned that a game I made in partnership with Jennifer Ann's Group has been de-indexed on Itch. A Thousand Cuts is a texting game - no other graphics, no depictions of human forms literally at all - about how hard it is to report sexual assault to Title IX adjudicators at universities.
Not sure where to share and hope this is okay here.

Two of our nonprofit org's free #educational games about #consent are de-indexed. We opened support tickets.

They are *not* adult games. We marked both games as "sensitive content" and "content warning" due to the subject matter.
UPDATE:
Both #consent #games have been indexed again on #itchio🎈

Thank you to everybody for your kind words and support!

🧡 We hope the situation improves for everybody soon.

Two more nonprofit games deindexed thanks to all of the "adult games" bullshit going on right now.

I guess it's too adult for teens to learn how to get out of violent relationships.
Not sure where to share and hope this is okay here.

Thank you -- we greatly appreciate it.
And to be clear: we marked them so that players would not inadvertently play them without realizing that these games have a content warning on them.

The intention was to prevent re-traumatizing people.

It is ironic that our consent games (to prevent SV) are harmed by a campaign to prevent SV.
Not sure where to share and hope this is okay here.
