๐Ÿ”ถ October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month ๐Ÿ”ถ

This month and always, we affirm that there is #HealHoldCenter. Itโ€™s time to take action and support survivors.
ย 
We are partnering with Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) on a national campaign dedicated to raising awareness about domestic violence. Every October, organizations and individuals unite across the country for a national effort to uplift the needs, voices, and experiences of survivors. Congress declared the month of October to be Domestic Violence Awareness Month in 1989.
ย 
New York State Office of Prevention of Domestic Violence is also partnering this month. We will be sharing resources from both sources as well as our counselors who specialize in working with survivors of domestic violence.

This yearโ€™s theme for #DVAM is #HealHoldCenter. Together, we can center healing and racial justice for survivors this October and beyond.
