| Safety. Solidarity. Solutions. |
Everyone deserves to feel safe at home. For someone experiencing domestic violence, knowing where to turn for help is an important first step. Having access to support and services makes it possible to take the next one.
This October, SafeSpace invites you to join us for Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Throughout the month, we’ll share information and resources to help our community recognize abuse, support survivors and turn awareness into action.
You can be part of this effort by attending our Domestic Violence Summit on Oct 13, wearing purple on Oct. 22 and making a gift to support services for survivors and their children. Each is an opportunity to help more people find the support they need to move toward safety and stability. More information about how you can get involved is below.
