Area's of focus

In the summer of 2024, Beyond Brazen will be offering scholarships for our annual survivors retreat.

 Retreats focused on healing from intimate partner violence serve as vital community-building platforms because they create safe and empathetic spaces for survivors to connect and share their experiences. These retreats foster a sense of belonging and understanding among survivors, helping to combat the isolation often associated with such trauma. Through collective healing and support, survivors can regain their self-esteem, rebuild their lives, and contribute to a stronger, more compassionate community dedicated to ending intimate partner violence. 

Awareness is the first step toward prevention.

 Beyond Brazen provides community education opportunities focused on developing trauma informed responses, understanding intergenerational trauma, and preventing and responding to intimate partner violence, including teen dating violence. 

By fostering a deep understanding of the signs, impacts, and underlying causes of intimate partner violence, we empower individuals to recognize and address it early, potentially averting future harm. Moreover, a well-informed community creates a supportive environment where survivors feel heard, validated, and less isolated, ultimately accelerating the healing process for those affected by this deeply traumatic experience.
