Election Day is here, and we want to make sure you cast your vote.

Don’t skip out because it’s a midterm. Midterm elections shape national and local decisions that affect daily life. Their outcomes determine:
👉️ Who controls Congress and thus how laws and oversight are handled
👉️State and local decisions on schools, healthcare, housing, transportation, and public safety
👉️The direction and limits of the presidential agenda

Especially in a midterm election, small margins can shift political power significantly because voter turnout is typically lower. That means every vote counts!

Election Day is drawing near, and we want to make sure you keep survivors and violence prevention in mind as you head to the polls.

An estimated 1.4 million Nebraskans experience intimate partner violence in their lifetimes. If you’re not a survivor, then you likely know someone who is, whether you realize it or not. It could be someone very close to you, because many survivors never tell anyone.

When you cast a ballot, you’re shaping how your community supports survivors, invests in safety, and stops violence before it starts. When you head to the polls this fall, vote with survivors in mind.

Election Day is drawing near, and we want to make sure you remember your photo ID as you head to the polls.

You must bring an acceptable form of photo ID to the polls on Election Day. The ID must have your name and photo. The ID can be expired. Acceptable forms of photo ID are:
✅️ Nebraska driver’s license (from the DMV)
✅️ Nebraska state ID (from the DMV)
✅️ Nebraska college ID (public or private)
✅️ Nebraska political subdivision ID (state, county, city, public school, etc.)
✅️ United States (U.S.) Passport
✅️ Military ID
✅️ Tribal ID
✅️ Hospital, assisted-living facility, nursing home, hospice, home and community-based developmental disabilities services agency, or intermediate skilled care facility record that contains the voter’s name and photo.

What if you forget your ID?
If you arrive at your polling place without an acceptable photo ID, you may go home to retrieve one, without signing in, and return with it before the polls close to cast a regular ballot.

Alternatively, you can complete a provisional ballot. You can still vote, but your ballot will count only if you present an acceptable form of ID in person at your county election office on or before Tuesday, November 10, 2026.

Money and safety are connected.

Across the country, people are worried about the cost of healthcare, groceries, and housing, and many are struggling to cover the basics. In fact, the Urban Institute reports that about 50% of American families can't afford the true cost of living. These financial challenges can increase the risk of experiencing domestic violence. For survivors, they can make it harder to leave.

Join us on Thursday as we explore what it means to invest in safety here in Nebraska. We'll look at the conditions Nebraskans are living in right now, what that means for their risk of experiencing or escaping violence, and what we can do about it.

Election Day is drawing near, and we want to make sure you know about the Address Confidentiality Program.

Voting is a fundamental right, but for those experiencing stalking or abuse, the process can present unique risks and challenges. The Address Confidentiality Program helps vulnerable voters by hiding their actual home address on public voter registration lists and election records.

The Nebraska Address Confidentiality Program provides services to Nebraska residents who are survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and trafficking. It provides survivors with:
▪️ a substitute address to use when interacting with state and local agencies, and
▪️ a new mailing address to keep their actual address confidential and protect it from third-party discovery through public records.

You can apply in person at designated victim assistance centers statewide, including any of our network survivor advocacy organizations.

A steady and fair paycheck. A place to live that doesn’t eat half your income. Healthcare you can actually access when you need it. Join us as we take a closer look at how economic factors like these impact survivors and violence prevention.

INVESTING IN SAFETY: HOW ECONOMIC STABILITY PREVENTS VIOLENCE
📅 Thursday, October 29

Domestic violence doesn't stop when someone reaches a certain age. Yet older survivors can be overlooked in systems, data, services, and even our understanding of what domestic violence looks like.

Older adults may experience many of the same forms of power and control as younger survivors. However, the circumstances surrounding abuse may look different later in life. An older survivor may have been with their partner for decades. They may share a home, retirement income, bank accounts, or caregiving responsibilities. They may have health conditions or disabilities that make leaving more difficult. Their social circle may have become smaller over time, leaving them with fewer sources of support.

And sometimes, the person experiencing abuse may not identify what is happening as domestic violence. Generational attitudes and expectations about marriage and relationships can influence how someone understands their experience. An older survivor may have grown up at a time when domestic violence was rarely discussed, and leaving an abusive relationship may not have been viewed as an option.

If we want to prevent and respond to domestic violence across the lifespan, we must make sure older survivors are part of the conversation. To get started, here are five ways to support older adults:

1️⃣ CENTER OLDER SURVIVORS: Include older adults in domestic violence awareness, prevention, intervention, and public education efforts.

2️⃣ BRIDGE THE GAP: Strengthen partnerships between survivor advocacy organizations, Adult Protective Services, aging services, healthcare providers, housing providers, and other systems that support older adults. No single system can address all of the needs an older survivor may face.

3️⃣ USE INCLUSIVE LANGUAGE: Talk about domestic violence across the lifespan rather than framing it as something that primarily affects younger people.

4️⃣ TRAIN PROFESSIONALS: Healthcare providers, law enforcement, attorneys, advocates, housing providers, and other professionals need the tools to recognize domestic violence in older adults, including coercive control, financial abuse and exploitation, isolation, and interference with healthcare.

5️⃣ ASK DIFFERENT QUESTIONS: If you are working with or supporting an older adult, don’t assume that a long-term relationship is a safe relationship. Ask about choice, autonomy, access to money and resources, relationships with family and friends, healthcare decisions, and whether the person feels safe at home.

Today is Health Cares About Domestic Violence Day.

When we talk about domestic violence, the conversation often centers on the moment of harm itself. But for survivors, the effects of abuse don't end when the immediate danger passes. They can live in the body for years, sometimes for a lifetime.

The health consequences of domestic violence are wide-ranging, often invisible, and frequently disconnected from their true cause in both survivors' and providers' minds.

For example, domestic violence has been connected to a wide range of physical health conditions, including asthma, chronic pain, gastrointestinal problems, cardiovascular issues, disordered eating, sleep problems, and brain injury. Anxiety, depression, panic attacks, memory loss, post-traumatic stress disorder, and substance use are frequently reported by survivors.

These conditions are often treated separately from the abuse that contributed to or caused them, which can mean survivors receive care that addresses symptoms without ever getting at the root cause.

Healthcare settings can be a turning point for survivors. Providers can help support survivors by:

▪️ Talking with all patients about healthy and unhealthy relationships and the health effects of violence, regardless of whether abuse has been disclosed

▪️ Making trauma-informed information and tools visible and accessible for both patients and staff

▪️ Walking patients through each step of a physical exam and asking permission before proceeding

▪️ Working with administration to host regular trauma-informed training and to build trauma-informed policies where they don't already exist

▪️ Working with administration to host regular trauma-informed training and to build trauma-informed policies where they don't already exist

▪️ Ensuring patients have private time with their provider, without a partner present, at some point during a visit

▪️ Factoring a patient's experience of violence into treatment and care planning, including reproductive health

▪️ Partnering with local survivor advocacy organizations for training and referrals
