    Janine Guzzone from the Crime Victims Treatment Center testified in support of Intro 565, which provides guidance to domestic violence survivors on making their voter registration records confidential. She emphasized the importance of this bill in protecting survivors' privacy and restoring their ability to participate safely in the democratic process.

    • The Crime Victims Treatment Center has been providing free services to victims of interpersonal violence since 1977, including crisis intervention, therapy, and advocacy.
    • Intro 565 would bridge the gap in awareness by providing vital information and assistance to individuals receiving services at Family Justice Centers.
    • The bill addresses the fear and pressure that survivors may face when exercising their right to vote, helping to restore their autonomy and safety in the voting process.
