In October 1987, the country observed the first National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, as well as the creation of the first national domestic violence toll-free hotline. Two years later, Congress passed Public Law 101-112, officially designating the month of October as National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Every year since then, Congress has passed similar laws, declaring October to be National Domestic Violence Awareness Month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>National Domestic Violence Awareness Month centers around three themes that were established with the Day of Unity: mourning those who have died because of domestic violence, celebrating survivors, and connecting advocates. On average, nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States, and anyone can be a victim of domestic violence. National Domestic Violence Awareness Month is vital for increasing the public\u2019s understanding of the prevalence of domestic violence. The end goal is to create a culture where victims and survivors are empowered and abusers are held accountable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to acknowledge National Domestic Violence Awareness Month<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image wp-drop-shadow wp-rounded-corners\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-2-1024x576.png\" alt=\"wooden blocks and purple ribbons spelling out &quot;Stop Violence&quot;\" class=\"wp-image-36000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-2-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-2-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-2.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Educate yourself<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most important things you can do during National Domestic Violence Awareness Month is to educate yourself on domestic violence. Knowing what domestic violence is and what the warning signs are can help you keep yourself and your loved ones safe. By educating yourself, you can learn how to support survivors of domestic violence and help break the cycle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Raise awareness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Many organizations run official awareness campaigns on social media sites to spread the word about National Domestic Violence Awareness Month and get people talking. For example, the Domestic Violence Awareness Project (DVAP) runs the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dvawareness.org\/1thing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">#1Thing campaign<\/a>, which centers around the idea that change can start with just one thing. You can also participate in Purple Thursday on October 19. On Purple Thursday, everyone is encouraged to wear purple and spread the word on social media to show support for those who have experienced domestic violence and abuse and to raise awareness of resources available to survivors.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Volunteer or donate<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shelters and hotlines are always in search of volunteers, and National Domestic Violence Awareness Month is a perfect time to lend your support. Contact your local women\u2019s and children\u2019s shelters to see if they\u2019re in need of any supplies or if they have volunteer shifts they need filled. If you\u2019re interested in helping out at a hotline, attend training sessions to learn how to become an effective volunteer.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nonprofits to support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-image wp-drop-shadow wp-rounded-corners\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"36001\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-3-1024x576.png\" alt=\"wooden blocks spelling out &quot;Hope&quot; with a purple ribbon\" class=\"wp-image-36001\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-3-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-3-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-3-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.qgiv.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/NDVAM-3.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/noabuse.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chrysalis Shelter for Victims of Domestic Violence, Inc.<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chrysalis Shelter for Victims of Domestic Violence has been helping individuals and families impacted by domestic violence in the state of Arizona for 40 years.
