🔊 Voices of Change: Community Partners Building 🔊 Voices of Change: Community Partners Building Lasting Impact

Creating a world free from sexual violence takes all of us, and community partners play a vital role in making that vision a reality. 💙

We’re deeply grateful to @hopflybrewingco and @royalbuildinggroup  for showing up as sponsors of Meat Fest and standing boldly alongside Brave Step’s mission. Their support goes far beyond sponsorship. It fuels survivor care and makes it possible to deliver vital education and prevention programs in our community.

When businesses choose to use their voices, resources and influence for good, they help build a future where survivors can recover and fewer people are harmed in the first place.

✨ Thank you, HopFly and Royal Building Group, for being Voices of Change and helping us create lasting impact ... one step, one conversation and one act of support at a time.

Wisdom taken from Dr. Lisa Littlejohn Hill

An advocate is more than a supporter. They are an influencer, action-taker and catalyst for change. Advocacy is at the heart of Brave Step’s mission to empower those impacted by sexual violence, and it can take many forms.

Direct advocacy might look like:
✨ Actively and non-judgmentally listening as a survivor shares their story
✨ Connecting them to vital resources
✨ Empowering their autonomy as they navigate recovery

Broader advocacy can include:
🌟 Volunteering to raise awareness
🌟 Educating yourself and others
🌟 Making financial contributions to sustain vital services

Whether personal or public, advocacy is about action and action changes lives.

In 2019, one of our incredible long-standing supporters turned his home into a stage for hope, hosting an intimate concert featuring talented artists @sarahcello  and @carriewellingmusic to raise vital funds for Brave Step. 💙

Moments like these remind us that giving back doesn’t always happen in traditional ways. Whether it’s through music, creativity or personal connection, each act of generosity helps Brave Step empower survivors and educate communities.

As we reflect on ten years of impact, we’re grateful for the people who’ve used their unique gifts to lift our mission higher. Here’s to the harmony of compassion and community that keeps Brave Step strong.
