Today the United States Supreme Court upheld the federal law that prohibits domestic abusers from lawfully possessing firearms in the case?United States vs Rahimi.?We are relieved to hear that in an 8-1 decision, the Supreme Court decided to stand on the right side of history to prevent dangerous individuals access to firearms. Today’s ruling was a milestone in the ongoing push to end domestic violence. For years to come, we can look back at the decision made today as a step towards progress and protection for women and children experiencing domestic abuse.? ? While we will celebrate today as movement in the right direction, we must acknowledge the work there is left to do in ending domestic violence. Although abusers will now be restricted from possessing firearms, we know that there are countless seen and unseen ways women and children in abusive homes are still at risk. We hope that the joy and reassurance from today’s ruling acts as a catalyst for continued systemic change when it comes to domestic violence. When we all decide to stand together against abuse, powerful change can be made.

"What we say shapes how we think." The words we choose have the power to define or reframe ideas, beliefs and assumptions about ourselves and the world. On this week's episode of Genesis the Podcast, listen as Genesis Chief Impact Officer Maria MacMullin and social scientist Erica Olson, MSS, MLSP dive into the complexities of communication and the ways in which language can impact discussions around domestic violence.
