October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month and, in addition to our annual State-Wide Human Chain Against Domestic Violence, the Coordinated Community Task Force (CCR) Against Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault serving Jackson, Limestone, Madison and Morgan Counties have also organized a month of events during October encouraging the public to attend, wear purple, or purple ribbons to place a focus on domestic violence awareness. Abusers keep their power with silence and secrecy so placing the spotlight on domestic violence brings DV out of the dark and helps to end that cycle.

Please join us at the human chain and feel free to wear your favorite purple attire! Be a link in the human chain against domestic violence!
