We know that families affected by domestic violence are often struggling with more than just the abuse - sometimes our clients don't know where their next meal will come from. And hungry bellies-especially for the kids in our Children's Program-make the work of processing and healing from violence almost impossible.  

So we were delighted by this recent donation from a long-time friend of DAP: a gift of 48 meal packs for the kids and moms in our Tuesday night children's therapy group. These brown bags are full to bursting with non-perishable, easy to prepare, and kid-friendly food!

What about YOU? Do you have a friend circle, a worship group, or a community gathering that might be interested in putting together meal packs for Tuesday groups? Click the link below to learn how.

Thanks to many hardworking, dedicated and passionate advocates around Minnesota, the Legislature passed a number of laws that will continue to put our state on the map as a leader in ending domestic abuse.

Some of those laws include: 

Victim Lease-Breaking Remedy HF859

Domestic Abuse Prohibition of Firearms HF3238

Gone On Arrival Warrentless Arrest HF2141

Unsession Public Safety Laws HF3017

Crimes of Violence Definition HF263 

Being a Table Captain is one of the most impactful ways you can help DAP fill the room, influence the success of our fundraising efforts and help DAP provide opportunities and services to the children and families in our community. Any individual, couple, company or group can be a Table Captain.
