Baton Rouge, LA

Calling all survivors of interpersonal and systemic violence, victims' loved ones, allies, advocates, and supporters to the State Capitol in Baton Rouge from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, April 26th! Survivors from across the state are coming together to make our voices heard during National Crime Victims' Rights Week and the legislative session. Hear from advocacy and service organizations, speak with the legislators about our priorities, and build fellowship and community with each other. We know what changes need to happen in Louisiana to build safe communities and support healing. No one needs to identify themselves as a survivor or share more than they want to participate! Louisiana Survivors for Reform will provide resources and training to folks on how the legislative process works, questions to ask legislators, advocacy talking points, and grounding/self-care techniques for ourselves. Lunch will be provided and transportation is available.
