It Takes All of Us
Each October, YWCA Spokane looks to increase awareness about the prevalence of domestic violence in our community, inspire action that is focused on creating lasting change, and encourage community-wide participation. Every action helps create a community where safety, respect, and care are the standard for all.
Por qué este trabajo es importante
Domestic violence is an urgent issue in our community. Spokane continues to have a higher reported rate of domestic violence than the Washington State average. YWCA Spokane is on track to receive 6,000 calls to the helpline, nearly 2,000 more than last year.
Juntos podemos responder a esta crisis. Si somos capaces de reconocer los signos de violencia doméstica, responder adecuadamente para ayudar a los sobrevivientes y derivar a servicios significativos, podemos actuar y ayudar a cambiar esta estadística.
