Houston survivors Kalynn Moran and Kasey Davis have launched The Project Yellow, a new resource for those seeking domestic violence support. The initiative includes a dedicated website and a recently released song intended to help individuals identify and share survivor stories.

Why it matters

Domestic violence requires accessible, reliable support pathways for those in immediate need of safety. By sharing personal experiences and connecting individuals to established aid, this project aims to lower barriers to seeking help during Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

The National Domestic Violence Hotline offers 24-hour support through verified phone (800-799-7233) and text (88788) channels. The efficacy of community-led digital advocacy in connecting survivors to these clinical resources remains under investigation.
