We Mediate Joins Interval House Walk to End Domestic Violence in Memory of Jennifer Farber Dulos

Jessica Lastarza, owner and lead attorney at We Mediate CT, and her daughter Ainsley Lastarza are participating as co-captains of Team We Mediate & Ainsley in the Interval House Walk to End Domestic Violence on October 4, 2025. The annual event serves as a cornerstone for domestic violence prevention in Connecticut, drawing hundreds of participants to raise awareness and funds for survivors. This year, the team aims to raise $5,000 to support Interval House's critical services, including emergency shelter, counseling, and legal advocacy programs.

The walk holds particular significance as Team We Mediate & Ainsley is stepping forward in memory of Jennifer Farber Dulos while advocating for families deserving safe homes and brighter futures. With over $1,000 already secured weeks before the event, the team extends an invitation to West Hartford neighbors, mediation clients, and the broader Connecticut community to support their cause through participation or donations. Domestic violence often complicates divorce and separation processes, creating additional challenges for families seeking stability and healing.

Jessica Lastarza emphasized the connection between her professional work and the walk's mission, stating that domestic violence casts a long shadow over families navigating divorce and separation. At We Mediate CT, the firm specializes in collaborative divorce mediation and family law services with a focus on non-adversarial approaches that preserve dignity and safety. Their mediation services help clients avoid the emotional and financial toll of litigation while prioritizing co-parenting plans that support long-term family well-being.

Community support for Team We Mediate & Ainsley can be provided through two primary channels. Participants can register for the walk by visiting the Interval House Event Page, while those wishing to contribute financially can make secure donations through the Team We Mediate Donation Page. The firm's work aligns with Interval House's broader mission to end domestic violence through education, prevention, and empowerment initiatives that serve Connecticut communities.

By participating in this annual walk, We Mediate CT demonstrates its commitment to fostering stronger communities free from fear while supporting essential services for domestic violence survivors. The event represents an important opportunity for legal professionals and community members to unite in addressing domestic violence prevention, particularly through remembering victims like Jennifer Farber Dulos. The funds raised will directly impact Interval House's ability to provide comprehensive support services that help survivors rebuild their lives in safety and dignity.
