Collin County Council on Family Violence

11/21/2025

Join us for a powerful and eye-opening conversation about the effects of family violence and the silent struggles so many endure from educator Sherri Callahan. Too often, survivors live in silence, carrying the weight of fear, shame, and pain long after the harm has ended. This discussion will explore how family violence affects every part of a person’s life (emotionally, mentally, and even physically), and what we can do as a community to support healing and hope.

Join us for our upcoming CCCFV Lunch & Learn sessions. These sessions will be opportunities to engage in meaningful conversations, share insights, and expand your understanding of family violence and its impact on individuals and communities.

The interactive sessions are designed to:

✅ Continue raising awareness about the signs and dynamics of family violence
✅ Encourage collaboration and shared learning
✅ Equip attendees with resources and tools to support those affected.

Whether you're a professional, a community member, or someone seeking to learn more, your voice and presence matter.

Have lunch, bring your questions, and let’s collaborate to foster safer, healthier relationships. 💜

The information that was shared was very informative. Thank you Paige for coming to speak to us.

📢 Supporting Survivors: Protecting Victims of Domestic Violence

DVU Felony Prosecutor Paige Test spoke to Collin County Council on Family Violence about the various forms of protection available for victims. The discussion brought together victim advocates from multiple police agencies, social workers from family violence organizations, and attorneys from legal aid organizations—all working toward the common goal of safety and justice.

If you or someone you know needs help, the National Domestic Violence Hotline is available 24/7 at 800-799-7233 or by texting "START" to 88788.

You are not alone. 💜
