The Crisis Center started Domestic Violence Awareness Month by participating in this year’s Mercer County parade. We had a great time decorating the float and getting involved in the community in a new way. Don’t forget to check out our Empowerment Playlist on Spotify!

Stay tuned for what else we have up our sleeves to spread awareness. HINT! It involves some fun collaborations with some delicious and refreshing places.
