Alliance Against Workplace Violence

Welcome to another New Year! In 2026, the Alliance is launching a new project: Project Resilience.We will have a workshop during Workplace Violence Awareness Month in April. At such time, the Project will be launched. The date is tentatively set for April 25 in Silver Spring, MD. More details to follow.

I was looking through some old papers regarding domestic violence and found my notes from a legislative briefing on Capitol Hill in 2004. The following quotations are of the founders of VAWA. (The Violence Against Women Act. )

Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Utah)- “America’s commitment to personal freedom falls short when women and children) are not safe in their own homes.”

Senator Joe Biden (D-Delaware)-
“We are doing God’s work…this has always been a ground-up initiative.”

Where is VAWA now? We must not forget the lessons of the past. We must remember our experiences with abuse and do not repeat them!

Please pay attention to this issue

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to honor survivors, highlight the need for education and prevention, and confront this critical issue that affects millions worldwide! 🌎 Throughout October, we’ll be sharing resources and ways to take action, so stay tuned and follow us on social media. 💜 💡 To learn more and access resources, visit futureswithoutviolence.org ☎️ If you or someone you know needs help, call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) #DVAM #DVAM25 #DomesticViolence #domesticviolenceawarenessmonth

During Workplace Violence Prevention Month, generate discussions among your employees about how they can spread a culture of violence prevention everywhere!

Workplace violence awareness month starts April 1. What are you doing to bring attention to this problem and its solutions?

If we practice unconditional love, we could never bully or abuse another living thing (person, animal, plant, whatever)

Remember that violence prevention is everybody’s business! Practice a “zero-tolerance” mentality relative to violence and abuse. Develop cultural awareness and education about “bystander intervention.” Become an “empowered bystander.” Don’t be a part of the problem by doing nothing! Become involved with community advocates about the violence problem and find out what you can do to help prevent it. Volunteer to serve at violence-prevention events, and donate funds to support them. Do social media awareness and education.
