Domestic Violence Awareness Month | Preparing an Emergency Go Bag

For someone experiencing domestic violence, having a safety plan in place can make all the difference. One important part of that plan may be preparing an emergency "go bag" with essential items in case they need to leave quickly.

What should you include in a go bag?

📑 Important Documents:
Identification, birth certificates, Social Security cards, passports, insurance information, and any important legal or custody documents.

💳 Money and Access:
Cash, checks, credit or debit cards, spare keys, cell phone, charger, and important account information.

💊 Health and Personal:
Toiletries, health information, medical devices, medication, and personal products.

🧦 Clothing & Supplies:
A few changes of clothes, jacket or coat, comfortable shoes, and necessary items for children or pets.

If it is safe to do so, consider keeping your go bag somewhere secure and easily accessible, or with a trusted friend or family member. Awareness is the first step. Safety starts with a plan.💜

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to recognize survivors, honor their experiences, and help make supportive resources more widely known.

Our team recently completed training to serve as Safe at Home Application Assistants. Safe at Home is Tennessee’s free, statewide address-confidentiality program for eligible survivors of domestic abuse, stalking, human trafficking, r**e, sexual battery, and other sexual offenses. The program provides approved participants with a substitute mailing address that may be used for many state and local government records, helping protect their confidential residential address from public disclosure.

As trained Application Assistants, we can help eligible individuals understand the program, complete the application process, and connect with appropriate next steps and resources. If you or someone you know may benefit from Safe at Home, please reach out to our office. 💜
