October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and Southern Valley Alliance needs your help to raise awareness throughout the community.
Did you know that 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men in the United States have experienced some form of physical violence by an intimate partner? We would like to think it doesn’t happen in our community, but the truth is that domestic violence happens everywhere. Last year, Southern Valley Alliance assisted 255 individuals in Carver County and 502 individuals in Scott County.
We all have a critical role to play in supporting survivors of abuse and preventing it from continuing in our community. Help raise awareness by printing and hanging a Southern Valley Alliance Crisis Line Poster in the restroom stalls of your business/agency. This has been found to be a useful tool in reaching victims of abuse. (Please don’t use the flyers for community bulletin boards, as victims rarely tear off the number in public).
Southern Valley Alliance provides victims of domestic violence and their families with support, referrals, protection and advocacy in Scott and Carver counties. Through increasing awareness, training, and building relationships, we can empower victims, educate our youth, inform our neighbors, and partner with agencies invested in safety and well-being.
If you are interested in learning more about SVA’s programs, volunteer opportunities, having an SVA staff member speak at an event, or if you would like us to drop off brochures and flyers, please call (952) 873-4214 or email info@svamn.org.
