Turn Domestic Violence Awareness into Action!

October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. DVS is challenging the community to turn it into Domestic Violence ACTION Month by getting involved to create a safe and healthy community for all women, girls, men and boys.

Domestic violence is a complex issue with no easy solution, but it’s simple for all of us to do something!

Ideas include:

• Hang fliers at your workplace, church, school or other community location. Download DVS fliers and materials.
• Ask your employer, church, school or community organization to put information in a newsletter or bulletin. Download messaging ideas here.
• Ask your employer, church, school or community organization to put information on their website. Download messaging ideas here.
• Ask a local business or church to put a message on their marquee. Contact Us For Message Ideas
