Domestic Violence Awareness Conference

How do we increase the awareness of a silent killer that is crippling our nation, our very own community? When one voice goes unheard, as if one isn’t enough, when one life is not the magnitude of many, when one organization cannot fight this battle alone….HOW?? We band together!

 

Join Hot Stiletto at the first ever Time to Talk Domestic Violence Awareness Conference being held Saturday, July 14th, at the Gem Theater. This conference will serve as a resource in educating, training, and motivating our community to address critical problems, and inspire attendees to take action and make a difference in the world on the issues of domestic violence.

 

Hear from those who have been gravely affected by this devastating act on multiple levels, who have journey down the destructive path and remarkable victories of domestic violence. Expert panelist will discuss their experiences, the successes of overcoming the fear of domestic violence, knowing and looking for “the signs” of abuse, and the strength of starting a new life free from bondage. We will provide the resources available before, during, and after the journey of transitioning.

 

Come out and lend your support, more importantly, your voices while we embark on the harsh truths about domestic violence. To break the cycle is to educate about the issue. Let’s invoke the solution, let’s be the resources because….enough is enough! All (men & women) are welcome to attend this much needed conference to help raise awareness and end domestic violence in our community.
