The Urgent Need for Change

Numbers can never capture the full weight of loss, trauma, or resilience, but they help us understand just how many people are affected. These statistics highlight why our mission exists: to honor Sima and Dylan by supporting survivors, strengthening prevention, and building communities where safety and mental well-being are possible for everyone.

More than 1 in 5 U.S. adults  experience mental illness each year

The presence of a gun in domestic violence situations increases the risk of homicide for women by 500%. More than half of women killed by gun violence are killed by family members or intimate partners

Female intimate partners are more likely to be killed with a firearm than all other means combined

According to the US Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect, domestic violence may be the single major precursor to fatalities from child abuse and neglect in the US 

Support Through Prints

You can also help support the Sima & Dylan Pariseau Memorial Foundation, Inc. in a meaningful and creative way: by shopping prints through Sophie P. Photography.

For every print featuring a Massachusetts location, 10% of the proceeds will be donated directly to the SDP Foundation. Your purchase not only brings beautiful travel and landscape photography into your home, but also helps fund programs that prevent domestic and gun violence, support survivors, and promote mental health awareness.

It’s a simple way to enjoy art you love while making a meaningful difference in your community.
