Domestic Violence Awareness Month // Bloggers Unite

Domestic Violence Awareness Month

http://eachotherskeeper.blogspot.com

October 01, 2010

Objective:
To provide youth and women with education about healthy relationships and change attitudes that support violence.

During this month, we will rededicate ourselves to breaking the cycle of violence. By providing blogs, posts, case studies, and poems about healthy relationships and why domestic violence should not be tolerated, and by changing attitudes that support violence, we recognize that domestic violence can be prevented. We must use this rare opportunity to build the nations awareness of this quiet crisis and serve serve those in need.

And across America, I encourage victims and their families to call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE. No victim of domestic violence ever struggles alone.

10/06/10 Let me think! Flyer

by: ELMDyck

This flyer is sporting both the 'Stop Violence Against Women' and 'Stop Domestic Violence' icons. If I could change a few laws I would but this is where I guess I should start with my protest against Domestic Violence. The Monsters need to be stopped and the victims need to feel safe, I have become so very passionate when it comes to this topic and I feel that Domestic Violence needs more awareness, it should be taught about in schools. I have a story and I want it heard, neatly stacked shiny co

7/27/10 Cycle of Violence

by: artambrosia

It's really a cycle we must learn to break. I heard a woman speak on the subject once - how women who are abused react to the violence. She has been an expert in many murder trials where the woman kills her abuser and the woman has been aquitted because of this experts theories. I hope to find more on this and bring it to light in my post.
