Domestic Violence Awareness
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month but it’s important to shine a light on this pervasive community issue all year long. 1 in 3 women and 1 and 4 men will experience domestic violence in their lifetimes. You may not think it impacts you or the people you care about, but it does. It’s not always a black eye or bruises. It can be demeaning and humiliating words. Control and isolation. You can help.

Healthy Relationships
It is never too soon to talk to kids about the importance of healthy relationships. Please share this information sheet designed for elementary-age children. Educating children that it is not ok to hurt another person and reinforcing this concept is critical in combating the cycle of family violence.
