Today, September 11th, marks 25 years since the attacks that changed our nation forever. We remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, we honor the first responders and everyday heroes who risked everything to help others, and we think of the families and survivors for whom this anniversary carries lasting weight.

At DASACC, we see every day how trauma and grief don't simply fade with time β€” they're carried, processed, and healed within community. September 11th reminds us how powerfully people can show up for one another in the hardest moments, and that spirit of showing up for each other is exactly what we strive to offer survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault every single day.

If today is a hard day for you, or if you're navigating trauma of any kind, please know that support is available and you don't have to face it alone.

Today is World Su***de Prevention Day.

If you're worried about someone, here's what to watch for: withdrawing from friends and family, talking about feeling hopeless or being a burden, giving away belongings, or a sudden sense of calm after a period of despair.

The most important thing you can do is ask directly: "Are you thinking about su***de?" Asking does not plant the idea β€” it opens the door. If someone you love is showing these signs, or if you're struggling yourself, help is available right now.

988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline β€” call or text 988, available 24/7.

Living with abuse changes how your brain and body respond to stress β€” even after the danger has passed. Anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts are common, understandable responses to trauma, not signs of weakness.

If this sounds familiar, please know: healing is possible, and support is available today.

DASACC offers free, confidential counseling for survivors. Reach out at 908-453-4181 or dasacc.org.

Today, we pause to honor the people who show up, put in the work, and build something worth being proud of. Labor Day is a reminder that progress is made by hands, not headlines β€” by the workers, doers, and dreamers who keep everything moving forward.

To everyone who's worked hard this year: thank you. Enjoy the rest today. You've earned it.

Happy Labor Day. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

πŸ”’ Digital Safety Series | Social Media Safety

Social media can be one of the easiest ways for an abusive partner β€” or their network β€” to monitor your location, activities, and relationships.

Here's how to protect yourself:

Review your privacy settings:
βœ… Set your profiles to private so only approved followers can see your content
βœ… Review your friends/followers list and remove anyone connected to your abuser
βœ… Turn off location tagging on posts and photos
βœ… Remove your phone number and address from your public profile

Be mindful of what you share:
βœ… Avoid posting in real time β€” share photos after you've left a location
βœ… Be cautious about tagging your workplace, your children's school, or places you regularly visit
βœ… Ask friends not to tag you in posts or check-ins without permission

Manage unwanted contact:
βœ… Block and report accounts that harass or threaten you
βœ… Save and screenshot harassment before blocking in case you need it for a protective order
βœ… Consider creating a new account with a different name if your current one is being monitored

Social media safety is not about disappearing β€” it's about controlling who has access to your life.

After a bowl-a-thon, one parent shared how meaningful it was just to get out, be together, and watch their child laugh and be carefree for a night. Moments like these matter. Healing isn't just about counseling sessions and safety plans β€” it's also about joy, connection, and remembering what it feels like to just be a family.

Thank you to everyone who makes nights like this possible. πŸ’™

September is National Su***de Prevention Month.

At DASACC, we know these conversations aren't separate from the work we do every day. Survivors of domestic and sexual violence are significantly more likely to experience suicidal thoughts than the general population β€” often because trauma, isolation, and fear can make it feel like there's no way out.

This month, we're sharing what warning signs look like, how to start a conversation, and where to find help β€” for yourself or someone you love. You are not alone, and support is always available.
