“Shine the Light on Domestic Violence: How to Go Purple” Webinar

On June 28, 2011, OPDV conducted a free webinar about its nationally recognized annual domestic violence public awareness campaign and how to be a part of it. The webinar featured four past participants describing the different ways they helped turn their communities purple to commemorate October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month, with tips and resources for how others can join in this campaign.

Learn how you can "go purple" in October 2011. It's easier than you think!
