Important Information Regarding Temporary Orders of Protection

Important Information Regarding Temporary Orders of Protection

If you have a temporary order of protection (criminal, family, or supreme) that is set to expire on or after March 19, 2020, it has been automatically extended under the same conditions until the case is rescheduled (unless you are notified otherwise by the court). We suggest you have a copy of the administrative order to keep along with your expired order in case you need to show law enforcement. Click HERE to download a copy of the administrative order.

This does NOT apply to final orders that expire after March 19 - these are not automatically extended. If you have questions about your order of protection, please call our 24-hour support line at (315) 468-3260.

 

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. 

 

Here’s how to get involved:  

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

2. Engage with our content on Instagram and TikTok   

3. Share survivor support resources from your organization  

4. Tag @verahouseinc
