Root For Each Other: A Branches Podcast
Root For Each Other: A Branches Podcast is a collaborative project of Branches Domestic Violence Shelter that is designed to shed light on issues of domestic violence that continue to oppress victims daily--these conversations will educate and empower listeners to recognize the insidious footprint of domestic violence in our communities as well as best practices for effective advocacy. With 1 in 4 women facing domestic violence in their life time, and communities of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community facing higher rates and more risk for reporting DV, there has never been a more urgent call to create not only trauma-informed services, but space for all of us to be members of a trauma-responsive community. This podcast can be your first step.

Read for Each Other: Hood Feminism by Mikki Kendall
On this episode, advocates Shannon & Sara, take a deep dive into the Branches Book Club March selection, Hood Feminism. This book is a must-read for anyone invested in the work of feminism and anti-oppression. As domestic violence advocates, this book is especially helpful in examining the vital work that still needs to be done to assist victims. We hope you'll join us for this conversation about these "notes from the women a movement forgot."
