South Carolina ranks among the worst states for domestic violence, and funding cuts are putting critical support services at risk. In this episode, we speak with Krystal Watson of Project REST and Sara Barber of SCCADVASA about the devastating impact of federal and state-level funding shortfalls on emergency shelters, legal advocacy, and survivor services. They outline what’s at stake for women and children across the state—and what real investment would look like. This is a powerful call to action for anyone who believes in safety, dignity, and justice for all.
