Domestic violence impacts LGBTQ community; nonprofit tries to raise awareness

Jun 15, 2021 / 07:50 PM EST INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) Domestic violence often has a greater impact in the LGBTQ community, advocates say. Not only is there fear about coming forward as a victim but also fear letting others know their sexual identity. The Domestic Violence Network says bisexual women are considered high-risk with roughly 61% experiencing rape, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner. Added to that, domestic violence isn’t always physical, mental or emotional violence, all which can be just as detrimental. Parker Rathwell said physical and verbal abuse from classmates started long before she came out as bisexual at 14 years old. She could barely get through a school year without being assaulted.

Philly Truce app launches Saturday Here s how it works

WHYY By Longtime friends Mazzie Casher (left) and Steven Pickens created the Philly Truce app, aimed at mediating neighborhood disputes before theuy erupt in violence. (Emma Lee/WHYY) Mazzie Casher and Steven Pickens haven’t personally lost anyone to gun violence. But they grew up together in the 1990s, when Philadelphia routinely recorded more than 400 murders a year, and don’t want to see that history repeat itself. Pickens said they decided to take action in October after learning about another fatal shooting in West Philly that left a young man dead. He felt overcome with despair. “It was basically just pouring out at that time like, we have to do something,” said Pickens, 46, an emergency medical technician.

Fighting Philly violence: Kenney s budget proposes $19M boost

WHYY By Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney and Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw confer during a press event at Olney Transportation Center, where a mass shooting occurred on Feb. 17, 2021. (Emma Lee/WHYY) Amid a historic surge in shootings and homicides, Mayor Jim Kenney’s administration is proposing an additional $18.7 million for anti-violence efforts during the next fiscal year. The funding would be used to expand a pair of violence intervention programs, a transitional jobs initiative, as well as the city’s blight remediation efforts, among other priorities. If approved by City Council, the total investment into anti-violence programming during FY22 would be $35.5 million out of a $5.18 billion proposed spending plan, less than 5% of the $727 million the Kenney administration wants to spend on the police department.
