2024 DVAM Recap

A Month of Awareness

Throughout October, more than 40 banners were spread across downtown busy streets and key landmarks lit up purple in honor of survivors. Unquenchable Hope was proudly displayed as part of DVAM and National Arts & Humanity Month.

Over 100 individuals received education and training about YWCA Services, realities of domestic violence, and supporting survivors.  Our Pathways Forward conversation on the realities of reporting had more than 75 service providers and community members in attendance to learn more about the complexities of reporting domestic violence. Read the recap and watch the recording здесь! During DVAM, in total, over 500 people connected with YWCA at community events, agency tours, or training sessions.

As the Engagement Lead, Jemma connected with multiple community partners and organizations, including MultiCare, Spokane Teaching Health Center, Woman's Club of Spokane, and Whitworth University. She spoke to students, providers, and community members about YWCA Spokane services and ways to increase support for survivors. During October, we also connected with folks at Soroptimist International, Gonzaga University (both the Legal and Leadership programs), and Junior League, to name a few.
