Silent Witnesses of Rhode Island Honoring the women, men and children murdered in acts of domestic violence in RI

The Silent Witnesses of RI are part of the international Silent Witness Initiative (www.silentwitness.net). Founded in 1997 by 8 RI women, there are now 9 chapters in Rhode Island, each comprised of volunteers who house the Silent Witness silhouettes and offer support and information to families and friends of domestic violence murder victims in RI.

So grateful to see our Silent Witnesses still out in the world, bringing awareness and education about domestic violence prevention.

This month, “silent witnesses” will be on display at Butler Hospital, Kent Hospital, and Women & Infants Hospital of Rhode Island, and VNA of Care New England. In 1990, the Silent Witnesses of Rhode Island began to honor the lives of domestic violence homicide victims and to offer support, community connections, and advocacy for change.

Please take a moment to look at these red silhouettes and read the stories of the victims. We need to remember their stories to put an end to these tragic deaths.
