We are blessed every November when local formal dress business Love It At Stella’s Bridal chooses Springboard for their month of gratitude. For every dress sold in November a portion is donated to our Domestic Violence Program. As weddings should be a fairy tale moment that is the beginning of a journey, Love It At Stella’s Bridal understands that not all fairy tales end in a happy ending. Thank you for your continued support to our agency and the community.

A special thank you to Mission BBQ, Chick-fil-A, and Olive Garden for the delicious food, and to Food Lion for generously donating refreshments and desserts.

We are so proud to share that Daniela Hernandez, our Carroll County Bilingual Domestic Violence Advocate, was invited to speak to McDaniel College’s Women in Latin America class during their final week of the semester.

After studying domestic violence and the term femicidio—a word used throughout Latin America to describe gender-based killings of women—students had the opportunity to hear directly from someone doing this critical work every day.

As a dedicated Domestic Violence Advocate, Daniela brought insight, compassion, and strength to the conversation. She shared how Springboard supports and empowers survivors by connecting them with vital resources and walking beside them as they rebuild safe, secure lives in the face of enormous challenges.

The students were deeply engaged, asking thoughtful questions and showing a genuine desire to understand the realities survivors face. Daniela’s commitment to our community—her willingness to educate, raise awareness, and advocate fiercely—makes a real and lasting impact.

We are grateful for Daniela’s heart, her voice, and her unwavering dedication. With staff like her, we remain a powerful force of support for all victims of violence
