Supporting the Cause
This month, we are joining countless others in raising awareness for Domestic Violence. A symbolic purple ribbon has been displayed in our lobby, signifying our support for Domestic Violence Awareness Month. To learn more about the importance of this cause, we encourage exploring the following resources:
The Purple Ribbon Campaign
The purple ribbon stands as a testament to courage, survival, honor, and the unwavering commitment to end domestic violence. While its exact origin might be uncertain, its significance is universally recognized. Families and friends use this symbol as a tribute to loved ones lost to domestic violence. Various shelters and community programs use the purple ribbon as a way to highlight the fight against domestic violence.
Representations of the Purple Ribbon:
- On shirts, hats, and bags.
- On police car antennas.
- Seen on doors, trees, and fences, especially where domestic violence occurred.
The purple ribbon serves not just as a show of support but also sends a potent message - domestic violence has no place in our homes, workplaces, or communities. Let's unite in this belief and work towards a safer, compassionate world.
In unity, we can effect change. Stand with us this month and always.
