💬 Voices of Change | Loved Ones & Allies 💬 💬 Voices of Change | Loved Ones & Allies 💬 Growth and change doesn’t happen in isolation and neither does impact. Recently, six brave individuals took the courageous step of joining our Loved Ones group, showing up not just for the survivors in their lives, but for something bigger. By choosing to listen, learn and grow, they’re planting seeds of change that will ripple outward into their families, their communities and beyond. Their willingness to show up begins a powerful trickle-down effect, shaping safer spaces, stronger relationships and a more compassionate world. To every ally walking this path: your courage creates change. 💙 #VoicesOfChange #BraveStep #LovedOnes #SupportSurvivors #RippleEffect #HealingTogether #ColorItBlue #CourageToShowUp
