“Domestic violence is
based upon one’s attempt
to control. The abuser has
a need to have total con-
trol over their partner or
family member,” Teter
continued. “Now, you add
the uncertainties brought
about by the COVID-19
pandemic, you get the
perfect storm for the
abused.”
According to Teter,
domestic violence is the
number one cause of
homelessness for women
and children in the state
of Oregon. In 2020, 477
individuals residing in
the Florence area sought
help escaping domestic
violence.
He added there are
things people can do,
including: speaking up
when you see someone
being abused; encourag-
ing those who are abused
to seek help; letting those
abused know they do not
deserve such treatment;
financially
supporting
agencies serving survi-
vors of abuse; and seeking
the assistance of profes-
sionals.
“We are all affected by
domestic violence,” Teter
said. “We all have an ob-
ligation to help one an-
other. We all can make a
difference.”

ban abortions and the
lack of action by the Su-
preme Court,” she said.
Kent is a progressive
activist who has been in-
volved with organizing
many previous public
events, as well as all four
of the preceding Florence
Women’s Marches.
“The March was held in
advance of the Oct. 4 re-
convening of the Supreme
Court,” Kent said. “We are
calling on the Supreme
Court to uphold the Roe
vs. Wade ruling and to
protect the rights and
health of all U.S. women.”
During the local march,
the gathered people of all
genders eventually circled
back to Florence City Hall.
Speakers were limited due
to COVID concerns.
According to the na-
tional Women’s March or-
ganization, 120,000 people
participated in the Oct. 2
event.
“We were clear that we
won’t tolerate attacks on
our reproductive free-
dom,” the group posted.
