💜 Painting, music, and 90’s R&B sing-alongs made for a fun and uplifting Friday night at our Washington Safe House. A beautiful reminder of the power of creativity, connection, and joy.

Dating abuse is a pattern of destructive behaviors that exert power and control over a dating partner. #TDVAM #TDVAM2026 #TeenDatingViolenceAwarenessMonth #LoveShouldNotHurt #HealthyRelationships #YouthVoices
