Since 1989, October has been recognized as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month 💜 This month, we stand with survivors of domestic and intimate partner violence, while raising awareness for those still facing it today. Domestic violence impacts every community - regardless of age, income, gender, race, or background. It’s not only physical; emotional abuse and controlling behaviors are also forms of harm that can create lasting effects, even across generations. Together, we can break the cycle, support survivors, and build stronger, safer communities. Let’s raise our voices and stand united! 🎗 @DVCCCT #DomesticViolenceAwarenessMonth #DVSurvivor #DVCC #HelpForKidsCT #FairfieldCountyCT
