New York’s domestic violence programs are in crisis. Survivors and advocates are being left without essential resources due to funding uncertainty. We need systemic change to ensure sustainable, trauma-informed support.

Survivors can’t wait. New York’s domestic violence programs are on the brink, struggling to meet the growing need. Since the pandemic, the crisis has only worsened, and now federal funding changes could devastate life-saving services.
It’s time for bold action. We urge the Governor and Legislature to:
- Invest $200M in sustainable DV services
- Increase funding for victim assistance
- Strengthen support for DV advocates and programs
Survivors and advocates deserve stability. Stand with us on #NYSCADVAdvocacyDay2025 and demand change! #StandingWithAllSurvivors
The fight for domestic violence funding in New York is happening NOW. Without action, survivors and families will be left without crucial support. We must act.
On #NYSCADVAdvocacyDay2025, we’re calling for:
- $50M increase for victim assistance
- $200M to Stabilize DV Services
- $9.6M for non-residential DV services
- 7.8% increase on all state contracts with DV programs
Tag your legislators and tell them: Survivors need funding, not empty promises. #StandingWithAllSurvivors
