Join #VagUp! today in the fight to change old, antiquated, outdated and useless sentencing laws regarding Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, Rape, & Violent Crimes Against Children SO THE PUNISHMENTS ACTUALLY FIT THESE CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY¹!!!
#VagUp! is actively working with federal, state, & local government representatives & lawmakers as well as law enforcement agencies, health care professionals, school officials & community leaders to help shine a very strong, bright light on these issues so we can change the current statutes & sentencing guidelines to enable district attorneys, judges, & jury’s the ability to not only hand down appropriate sentences but also bring a sense of justice & safety & wellbeing to the Victims of these crimes!
But the truth of the matter is not whether or not we can bring awareness about these issues to the above stated people – because we are! BUT IT’S THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THAT JOIN WITH US, AS ONE VOICE, GROWING EVER LOUDER, TO DEMAND THAT AWARENESS & CHANGE REALLY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE! So, Raise Your Voice With Ours! Demand Change Today! TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE! It’s time to make a change AND Put A Stop To These Crimes Against Humanity Forever!!
Things you & your local communities can do together from a grassroots level:
Hold your representatives & justice departments accountable!;
Educate your local law enforcement agencies, school officials, & health care professionals on how to better handle Victims with the respect, dignity, & compassion they so desperately need & it will also encourage more people to come forward;
Raise awareness through the posting of fliers & handing out brochures with local crisis & shelter hotlines;
Holding monthly community meetings & inviting local leaders & law enforcement to them to answer questions & concerns;
Using social media apps to “go live” at these community meetings so others can not only get involved, but people in other communities can set up their own meetings, &;
Network with other communities & organizations like #VagUp! to keep up to date on the changes that we’re all trying to achieve!
Thank You So Very Much For Your Support!
