Our Medical Forensic team, Bree and Alisha, recently had the opportunity to train at Essentia Health Emergency Department in Sandstone . They trained 24 emergency department staff on forensic exams, evidence collection, documentation, and medical advocacy. Family Pathways also joined us to discuss their services in Pine County.

Thank you, Sandstone Essentia Health, for understanding how important this training is for victims/survivors of sexual violence.

💜 A Gift That Continues to Make a Difference

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Family Pathways is grateful to receive a generous $35,000 donation from Roxie’s Hope.

Presented following Roxie’s Hope receiving the Margaret Johnson-Barr Award at our Awareness & Empowerment Dinner, this gift will directly support survivors and their children staying at our Minnesota domestic violence shelter.

Although Roxie’s Hope announced the end of its nonprofit operations earlier this year, its impact will continue through this generous contribution, helping provide safety, support, and hope to survivors when they need it most.

Thank you, Roxie's Hope, for your commitment to survivors and for helping us continue this important work. 💜
