Stand with Vera House during October and bring awareness to domestic violence. The statistics are staggering…1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men aged 18 or older in the United States have been the victim of physical violence in their lifetime by an intimate partner. Let's ALL be a part of the solution: Awareness + Action = Social Change.
You can help create a community where safety and respect are the foundation of every relationship. Here are some simple ideas to get you started:
