At the intersection of LGBT History Month and Relationship Violence Awareness Month, spend a few minutes with our co-Executive Director Raye Dooley, and Shaye Loyd, the Director of the Southern Queer Survivors Network (SQSN).

Hear a little history of how domestic violence work was born, how it wasn’t until much later that LGBT intimate partner violence was addressed and specifically how the work of the SQSN came to be. SQSN services are available to queer survivors in all 100 counties across North Carolina.
