In October, we want to take a moment to recognize and raise awareness for #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth. This is a time to reflect on the impact of domestic violence in our communities and to support those who have been affected. Domestic violence is a pervasive issue that affects individuals regardless of age, gender, race, or socioeconomic status. It encompasses physical, emotional, and psychological abuse, often leaving deep scars that are not visible to the outside world. It’s crucial to understand that it can happen to anyone, and it is never the victim's fault. #DYK that: - Nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the U.S. - Domestic violence costs the U.S. economy $8.3 billion annually in health care services, police protection, and lost productivity. How You Can Help: 1. Educate Yourself: Understanding the signs of domestic violence is the first step in helping those in need. Look for red flags like isolation, fearfulness, and unexplained injuries. 2. Support Victims: If you know someone who may be experiencing domestic violence, listen without judgment and offer your support. Encourage them to seek help. 3. Get Involved: Join us for our upcoming events throughout October to raise awareness and support survivors. Check our website for details on workshops, rallies, and information sessions. 4. Spread the Word: Share information about domestic violence on social media or through community discussions to help raise awareness and reduce stigma. Resources Available: If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please call 911. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, Family Advocacy Program (FAP) is here to help. To contact the FAP or a Victim Advocate please call the helpline at 240-688-6918 or the FAP office at 301-677-4118. Celena Flowers, Family Advocacy Program Supervisory Social Worker, Cherod Jones, Domestic Abuse Victim Advocate, Valinda Thomason, Domestic Abuse Victim Advocate. National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233). Together, we can create a community where everyone feels safe and supported. Let’s stand up against domestic violence and work toward a future free from abuse.
