Director of Advocacy Services Recognized

Director of Advocacy Services Recognized

Congratulations to Jolie Moran, our Director of Advocacy Services, who was recognized at the Crime Victims Vigil on April 24th for her outstanding work with victims. Jolie is pictured here with her family and Katie Stager, the Vigil's powerful speaker.

The Crime Victims Vigil is organized annually by the Onondaga County Crime Victims' Rights Coalition in recognition of National Child Abuse Prevention Month.  The vigil provides an opportunity for people to recognize and honor victims and survivors and also think about ways in which to prevent abuse and neglect from happening in the future. 

A Message to Andrew Cuomo

“The Friends of Andrew Cuomo” spent over $300,000 to launch an ad campaign designed to paint former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo as a victim of political attacks because of the sexual harassment claims against him. We cannot allow this gaslighting to continue while the ad revictimizes victims of not only Cuomo’s sexual harassment but ANYONE who has ever experienced abuse. The tactics used by Cuomo and his supporters further represent the barriers that survivors face every day that prevent them from coming forward and getting support. 

 

We at Vera House have asked Andrew Cuomo to take accountability for the harm he has caused on multiple occasions. Instead of admitting to his wrongdoings, he continues to use power and control to suppress and invalidate the truths of the survivors.  Today we released a video, produced by Solon Quinn Studios and supported by Survivors’ Network, that sends a powerful message to survivors, "I believe you."  

 

We are asking you to help us amplify the video so that survivors throughout New York and the rest of the world know that we believe and stand with them.

1. Share our post on Facebook, Linkedin, and Twitter  

2. Engage with our content on Instagram and TikTok
