#NeverForever Safe Horizon’s Annual Gala

It was never love-it was never forever. One in four women and one in seven men will be a victim of domestic violence once in their lifetime. Chances are you or someone you love could be next.

Safe horizon partnered with Miss America and The Painted Nail to continue spreading awareness and empowering not victims, but survivors. Unfortunately, I witnessed someone close to me struggle with an abusive relationship. Even worse, that is all I did- be a witness. I was lucky enough to no longer just be a witness and attend Safe Horizon’s annual gala. I even wore a suit. If you know me, you know this is a big deal, though I did miss my sweatpants.
