Wear Purple Day: Domestic Violence Awareness Day

Domestic Violence Awareness Month is here!

We hope you have been Shining the Light across New York State! If not, it’s not too late to make plans. See our Shine the Light toolkit for ideas and printable resources, like posters and brochures. Thank you to those who have already sent photos; we will be posting them to our 2016 Shine the Light Facebook photo album soon, so check back often. You can email photos to opdvpurple@opdv.ny.gov and/or post them to social media with the hashtag #ShineTheLight. And remember, Thursday, October 20 is the statewide Wear Purple Day!

See Governor Cuomo’s 2016 Proclamation of October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
