"Chattanooga is a place of beauty, growth, and innovation. There are many worthy and necessary components that make our city, but the measure of a great city is how it values people. I want us to be known for standing up for victims, for protecting the most vulnerable, for doing the right thing when it matters most." Kevin "C.K." Hyde, CEO of Partnership for Families, Children and Adults. At the Embers of Hope Candlelight Vigil for Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Kevin shared this powerful message, reminding us of the importance of supporting victims and creating a community of safety, stability, and hope.

Domestic violence affects more people than we realize. It could be a friend, a neighbor, a coworker, or a family member. That’s why the theme for Domestic Violence Awareness Month is "Everyone Knows Someone" — because the impact of abuse touches all of our lives in some way. On October 17, 2024, join us and wear purple for Purple Thursday to show your support for survivors. Stand with Partnership, the Office of Criminal Justice Programs (OCJP), and advocates across the country. Snap a photo, share it with #Every1KnowsSome1, and help raise awareness. Together, we can make a difference, ensuring safety, stability, and hope for everyone. #Every1KnowsSome1 #PurpleThursday #DVAM #EndDomesticViolence #SupportSurvivors
