Family Members, Spouses, Parents and Friends
As a whole, we’ve seen far too many who have experienced domestic abuse. We seek to create a safe space for our employees, guests, and community. We are hospitality professionals by trade but are also part of our community at large and have seen how this can, and does, affect us all. In collaboration with local women’s shelters, we seek to create a safe space for our employees, guests, and community. We seek to develop ongoing respect for others among our team members and train them to support those in need of assistance. We strive to proactively address the surge in domestic abuse cases, not just during the pandemic but beyond while forcing a change in our environment and culture. As restaurant, bar, hotel, and lounge owners, we recognize our unique opportunity to reach and provide support to people in these situations.
