Attend “Life After Overcoming Trauma” on April 5 to Uplift Survivors of Domestic Violence

Violence at the hands of an intimate partner affects more than 10 million people in the U.S. each year. For incarcerated women, the numbers are even more staggering—over 77% have experienced intimate partner violence, and 86% have survived sexual violence. These deep, lasting traumas are directly connected to the cycle of punishment and incarceration we work to end.

MI-CEMI is proud to stand with survivors and support our partners at the National Lifers of America, “Life After Overcoming Trauma,” a powerful event hosted by Minister Mary Marshall to raise awareness about domestic violence.

Healing is justice. Community care is resistance. Join us in showing up for both.

Come hear from guest speakers including Aimee Cherry, Sherri Ware of RedeeMED, and Armani Sawari—alongside a panel of powerful advocates from Sanctum House and Haven.

Let’s show up to honor survivors, amplify their stories, and celebrate the hope that comes after harm. We believe in a world where safety, dignity, and healing are possible for all.
