Chalkfest Maple Grove never disappoints! Thousands from across the state came together to celebrate incredible street art, local businesses, and community-driven nonprofits like Maria’s Voice.

🟣 DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PREVENTION TIP — KNOW THE SIGNS Brought to you by Maria’s Voice | MariasVoice.org ⚠️ Take 60 seconds. Most people don’t recognize the signs of domestic abuse until it’s too late. Knowing what to look for could help you support someone — or even save a life. 🧒 USING CHILDREN as a tool of control What might it feel like? 💬 “I’m scared they’ll take my kids away.” 💬 “I worry my children could get hurt.” 💬 “They ignore parenting responsibilities, sabotage my time with the kids, or turn them against me.” Using children as a weapon is domestic abuse — and it’s more common than many realize. 🫶🏽 Together, we can prevent abuse before it starts. Everyone deserves a Safe Home and Healthy, Equal Relationships. #MariasVoice #DVPrevention #KnowTheSigns #SafeHome #LoveShouldntHurt #EmotionalAbuseIsReal
