Nevada Coalition to END Domestic and Sexual Violence

10/05/2026

Today marks the first full week of Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM). 💜

This month, we want to elevate the importance of acknowledging survivors and supporting them throughout their trauma and healing journeys. Survivors deserve to be heard, believed, supported, and surrounded by a strong network of people and resources.

A heartfelt thank you to the Offices of Governor Joe Lombardo and Attorney General Aaron Ford for proclaiming and certifying October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month in Nevada. Your recognition helps shine a light on the importance of prevention, awareness, and survivor support.
It takes a team to help prevent domestic violence; and a strong support system can make a meaningful and lasting impact in a survivor’s journey toward healing and safety.

NCEDSV stands WITH SURVIVORS, ALWAYS. 💜

When cases of sexual violence make national news, the impact reaches far beyond the people directly involved and the community in which it happened. Survivors, families, young people, advocates, and communities may find themselves experiencing and trying to process a whirlwind of emotions, memories, questions, or experiences of their own.

If this case has affected you, you are not alone. Please know that support is available. Visit ncedsv.org for information, support, and resources throughout Nevada.

This year's national theme to be WITH SURVIVORS, ALWAYS means more than believing survivors when they disclose.

It means being there after the crisis.
After the report.
After the immediate danger has passed.
After the difficult conversations.
After everyone else has moved on.

Survivors deserve support that doesn’t have an expiration date, because "always" means always. Keep showing up. Follow and visit ncedsv.org to stay connected, access resources, and learn how you can support survivors beyond Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Healthy relationships start with knowledge, honest conversations, and voices that help us see prevention in a new way.

A heartfelt thank-you to the incredible advocates, leaders, and community voices who shared their time, expertise, and perspective as part of our Did You Know? video series. Your contributions helped us bring important conversations about healthy relationships, safety, and prevention to young people, families, and communities.

How do we talk to young people about safety without making fear the message?

For our final Healthy Relationships for Youth IG Live, we’re discussing what it looks like to create open, honest conversations with young people about safety.

Joining us is Mariatu Browne, Founder and CEO of Tu Organics, -foundation an organization providing training and employment opportunities to survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking.

Together, we’ll talk about how parents and caregivers can create the kind of relationship where young people feel safe coming to them, asking questions, and speaking up before violence occurs.

Conversations about safety don’t have to start with fear. They can start with trust, connection and keeping the door open.
