⚠️ this post references domestic violence, coercive control, and financial insecurity.
Though Domestic Violence Awareness Month has passed, the realities remain.
As SNAP benefits are reduced, many families are left to stretch safety, dignity, and survival across limited resources.
When stability and support are stripped away, control and harm often grow, at home and within the systems meant to protect us.
Ahimsa, or non-violence, calls us to respond to harm with compassionate action, in our homes, our communities, and ourselves.
🕊️ If this hits home, you are not alone.
