Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) is about far more than, well, generating awareness. It’s a time for advocates to come together for rich conversations with the public on addressing domestic violence, offering examples of values that define our work and the changes we can all invest in. This year, we’re bringing back the “In October, the Golden State Turns Purple” as a unifying symbol that brings all Californians together to end domestic violence. And we’re expanding our focus to include more conversations on the intersections of domestic violence. Topics include:
- Weeks 1 & 2: Social Norms Contributing to Domestic Violence
- Week 3: Domestic Violence at the Intersections: Race & Immigration
- Week 4: Domestic Violence in the 21st Century: Financial & Technology Abuse
- Week 5: Prevention & Intervention Approaches
