Join us LIVE today at 3:30pm CT with @drmariam.do where she will be discussing the topic of Domestic Violence with survivor @cassiehengel. A few weeks ago we shared Cassie’s story on her experience with domestic violence and were overwhelmed by the response we received from our followers regarding the topic!
