Empower & Rise
Empower & Rise is a transformative conference dedicated to driving policy change and raising awareness about the often-overlooked crisis of post-separation abuse. This event seeks to engage the judicial system, community leaders, and the public in a critical conversation about the silent epidemic that is devastating countless lives.
The conference aims to prevent domestic violence, post-separation abuse, sexual abuse, and intimate partner deaths within our communities. We advocate for robust protections for victims, especially children who are caught in the crossfire of these harmful situations.
Moreover, the conference will spotlight the issue of legal abuse in family courts, where the system often fails to protect the most vulnerable. Through expert speakers, panel discussions, and educational sessions, Empower & Rise will illuminate the urgent need for change and empower attendees with the knowledge to make a difference.
