Stand With Survivors Day (SWSD) is an annual advocacy day. SWSD is an opportunity for concerned Georgians from across the state to demand attention be paid to victims of domestic violence, ensure services are not impacted through budget cuts, and communicate the need for the state to be involved and vigilant in the quest to end domestic and sexual violence. SWSD brings together intimate partner and sexual violence advocates, system stakeholders, and community constituents from across the State of Georgia to rally together and speak to their elected officials about legislation that affects intimate partner and sexual violence survivors, their families, and communities.
