We just wanted to post a quick reminder that people of all genders, sexualities, and identities deserve healthy relationships. But our culture makes it harder for certain folks to attain those healthy relationships, including LGBTQIA survivors. Check out our website at the link in our bio learn more, or call our DVHopeline at 206-737-0242 to see what resources you can access.

Preventing dating abuse is only possible when we all work together. That's why we are thrilled to announce that our amazing Social Change team has created a guide for parents about creating healthy teen relationships! In it there are tips on how to support your child, how to spot relationship red flags, statistics, and much more. Check out the link in bio to learn what you can do to end teen dating violence and follow @nbcrushinit for teen-specific tips, info, and updates!

Last Saturday, we had a table at the Move For Love

Last Saturday, we had a table at the Move For Love 5K for the One Love Foundation, an organization that provides education for young people about healthy relationships. We saw upwards of 600 people at Lumen Field and got to chat with young folks, educators, folks from other non-profits, parents, and survivors. We had such a wonderful time meeting so many of you and seeing how important healthy relationships are to our community. Thank you to the @onelo@join1love and check out our Teen Instagram account @nbcrushinit for more information!

Another exciting opportunity for teens! This time

Another exciting opportunity for teens! This time provided by Powerful Voices, an organization that creates brave spaces with girls and gender expansive youth of color. One of those spaces is the Black Muslimah Collective, a group for Black Muslim girls and young women ages 13-19 in the Seattle/King County area looking to build community, relate to one another, and be authentically themselves. Food will be provided via gift card along with other incentives! Sign up at the link in bio. The Collective runs until July 19th.

Save the date for August 22-24!

Last year, we held our first ever Youth Leadership Retreat. For three days in August, several Seattle and Shoreline area teens 13-18 came out to learn about facilitating conversations about healthy relationships, practicing peer education, and activism.

�It was such a success last year that we are doing it again this summer! And for this retreat, we will be having trainings for a variety of experience levels. So whether you are a skilled facilitator or have never led a discussion before, you will be able to learn more and sharpen your skills! Space is limited to 25 teens. Email Neba Zaidi at nzaidi@newbegin.org for more information!

In honor of this sunny day, we wanted to share this beautiful sidewalk chalk art, created by a few of the kiddos at our Home Safe housing! We hope you can find a tree to sit under like the one in the photo and enjoy a few minutes outside today. 🌳🌳🌳

What a whirlwind! Only a few more hours left on the second day of GiveBig, and together we've raised just over $35,000 for survivors in our community.

To continue providing the services and programs we do for survivors, we set an ambitious fundraising goal of $75,000. We may not make it there, but know that the closer we get to that number, the closer we can get to making our community a more supportive place for survivors and their families.

We've also had another community partner provide an additional match of $5,000! This means we have $5,000 more to double your donation. So if you are able, please consider giving what you can today to get your investment in this work doubled. And if you're unable to invest financially but want to show your love for survivors in our community, you can share this post on your social media to get the word out. Thank you for your continued support! GiveBig link in bio 💜

Today’s the (first) day: GiveBig is finally here

Today’s the (first) day: GiveBig is finally here! Giving days like this are so important to New Beginnings because of the visibility and momentum they provide. In this spirit, a group of community members has put together a $20,000 match to help us reach our $75,000 goal. They believe—like we do—that by working together, we can empower survivors and break the cycle of domestic violence through programs and services like we have at New Beginnings. So please, consider giving what you can today to get your investment in this work doubled! And if you're unable to invest financially but want to show your love for survivors in our community, you can share this post on your social media to get the word out. Thank you for your continued support and happy first day of GiveBig! GiveBig link in bio 💜
