WE'RE BACK!!! In this new season of Stepping Toward Justice (@step2justice) Host Sarah A. Ford (@sarahafordesq) and Producer Zeke Stephenson (@zekestephenson) take a deep dive into last week's Victims Matter Rally that was hosted by SCVAN and SCADVASSA and took place on the front steps of the South Carolina State House. We chat about the Bowen Turner case being back in the news and where we’ve been these past few months.

We are grateful to the Luna Shark team for providing the video of the rally.

As we discussed in the episode, we are looking at a significant cut to the VOCA funds that many of us rely on to serve victims. We need to advocate that the legislature provides the SC Attorney General with additional funds so that victim services providers don’t face devastating cuts that will ultimately hurt victims.

Please click this link https://secure.madd.org/page/64675/action/1 and add your voice to ours. How often has a victim said to you, "I could not have done this without you?" If we lose our VOCA funding, many victims will have to walk their paths alone. We can't allow that.
