Episode 9 – Building a Village with Project Hope

In this episode of It Takes a Village, we sit down with Katie Thomas, Advocacy Director of Project Hope of Gunnison Valley. Together, we talk honestly about the realities of abuse and stalking, and the critical resources available right here in our valley for those affected. Katie shares the signs of abuse to look out for, how friends and loved ones can offer meaningful support, and what it really looks like to walk through the doors of Project Hope.

This conversation is all about breaking silence, building safety, and reminding our community that no one has to navigate abuse alone.
