Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) was launched nationwide in October 1987 as a way to connect and unite individuals and organizations working on domestic violence issues while raising awareness for those issues.
In 2022, HSCADV partnered with the Hawaiʻi State Public Library System to promote the year’s theme, #Every1KnowsSome1. Each library in the state showcased books that address domestic violence.
Later this year, this page will be updated to this year’s DVAM 2023 information, events, and resources.
Library resources are available here and you can use these Zoom backgrounds to continue spreading the conversation on domestic violence awareness.
