This is such an important message. Parents, keeping an open dialogue with your children is the first step. We must have proactive conversations. When children hear about these dangers from us first, they’re more likely to know how to handle it when it happens. When we introduce technology to our kids, we’re not just introducing them to the world, we’re giving the world access to our children. #sextortion #bigtech #socialmedia

Today, I share 3 secrets about facing our fears about going on this recovery journey and what we need to do instead.

Today, we are joining forces with like-minded individuals to raise awareness about the devastating reality of domestic violence. Statistics show that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience some form of domestic abuse in their lifetime. This means almost everyone knows someone who has faced, or will face, this hardship. But how can we prevent it from happening? Awareness is the first step toward prevention. By educating our communities, sharing stories, and offering support, we empower people to recognize the signs of abuse and take action. Together, we can break the cycle of silence and make a difference. Ruchelle Pride, M.S., CDE®, CPC Judge Terri Jamison Join us in this mission!

Caring about our youth and families is not novel and it has never been political theater. Funds and programs were created to address the real and present danger runaways and homeless youth face. For 287 days, youth in some parts of New Jersey have no access to #SafeHavens. Ocean and Monmouth Counties provide no local options for emergency or crisis housing for minor youth. Refuge saves lives. The only options are in cities far away, too far for minors to choose because they must leave their schools, peers, and established support systems. They do not know Newark or Trenton, and instead turn to local resources. Sofas. Cars. Tents. Offering favors for perceived safety. For example, 1 in 3 teens is lured into prostitution within 48 hours of leaving home. CLCL Foundation seeks to restore Safe Haven access and protection of local youth who find themselves on the streets or without a home for any reason.

This October, Client First is dedicated to honoring survivors, remembering those we've lost, and standing with those still fighting. Together, we can raise awareness and inspire hope for the future. #ClientFirst #ClientFirstInsuranceAdvisors #AndersonSC #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth

During Child Abuse Prevention Month, let's spotlight the crucial role of In-Home Family Services. These services help families handle challenges when they arise and prevent them from happening so they can experience stability and their children can remain in their homes. What keeps families engaged is getting to know the family's strengths and then building an approach where the services delivered are centered around the family's needs. Look at Magar's Family Success Story!

Each piece of wood we work with has a history—some are worn and weathered, others have knots and imperfections, yet each one carries unique beauty beneath the surface. At Gangland Express, we see the parallels between the wood we shape and the stories of those who craft it: GWOT combat veterans, survivors of sex trafficking, and recovering addicts. Like the wood, these individuals carry the marks of their pasts—stories of battles fought, lives rebuilt, and struggles overcome. With care and patience, we transform rough, flawed wood into something beautiful and purposeful. Just as this wood is shaped, so too are these men and women—into individuals of resilience, strength, and hope. Our cutting boards are more than products. They represent the triumph of human spirit over adversity. Crafted by hands that have fought wars, survived trauma, broken addiction, and left behind lives of crime, each piece reflects the power of redemption and the possibility of transformation. Crafted by survivors, veterans, and overcomers. Forged by stories of strength and second chances. ✨ www.ganglandexpress.com #GanglandExpress #CraftedWithPurpose #VeteranStrength #SurvivorResilience #RecoveringWarriors #WoodworkAndStories #RedemptionInEveryGrain
