COVID-19 Resource Round-Up

We have all been experiencing an abundance of information regarding COVID-19. MCADV knows that violence takes no break, even at times like these. In fact, some families will experience an elevated level of stress due to absences from work, school closings, and the realities of this illness. The COVID-19 crisis is likely to impact our lives and our communities for the unforeseeable future. Domestic violence programs are bracing for more reports of domestic violence and more victims reaching out for help and support. As domestic violence and sexual assault programs across our state respond to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in their local communities, we will be sharing resources to help everyone stay informed and connected.
