May is Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month in Queensland.  The purpose of the month is to help raise help community awareness and send a clear message that domestic and family violence will not be tolerated.

Everyone in the community has a role to play in raising awareness.  Here are a few ways you can be involved.

  1. Make a banner, a sign, a candle, put on your walking shoes and join us for the Remembrance March and Candle Vigil on Wednesday May 5th.
  2. Follow Domestic Violence Action Centre on socials to help keep the conversation going and raise awareness: Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.
  3. Host your own event, it could be a morning tea or crochet for a cause, a dinner party or a walk, anything that could help raise awareness.
  4. Approach us for a community talk or to be a guest speaker at your event: click here to email us.
  5. Attend local events.
