Join us during Domestic Violence Awareness Month for a compelling panel discussion that examines domestic violence through the lens of public health. This conversation will bring together professionals with lived experiences to explore the physical, emotional, and societal impacts of domestic violence, as well as the systemic barriers to care and support.
Panelists will also discuss the essential roles of education, prevention, and policy in building safer and healthier communities. Designed for students, educators, and professionals alike, this event aims to foster awareness, deepen understanding, and inspire meaningful action.
The seminar can also be attended virtually on Teams.
