What does spreading love look like? Sometimes it's as simple as what you wear. 💜

When you put on a Spread Love DC shirt, you're starting conversations about healthy relationships, standing with survivors across the District, and helping fund the work to end domestic violence in DC. It's awareness you can wear, and support survivors can see.

There's still time to order before Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Get yours by September 9. 🔗 https://www.customink.com/fundraising/spreadlovedc26

Our SpreadLove DC shirts are back, and this year they're extra special. 💜

To mark 40 years of DCCADV, we've launched a brand new anniversary design you'll want to wear all October long for Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Every shirt is a conversation starter, a show of support for survivors, and a way to help fund our work, as a percentage of every purchase comes back to DCCADV.

🛍 Order by September 9 to get yours in time for DVAM. https://www.customink.com/fundraising/spreadlovedc26

What an incredible week! 💜

Last week, our advocates across DC came together for our FIRST EVER accelerated 40-hour Domestic Violence Advocate Core Competency Training (DVACT).

This format represents a major step forward in how we train and equip advocates in the District.

Over the course of this accelerated training, advocates built essential core competencies, sharpened their skills, and deepened their understanding of best practices to effectively support individuals and families impacted by domestic violence.

This work matters. The knowledge participants gained will ripple out into our community, strengthening our collective response and bringing hope and healing to survivors across DC.

Together, we are building a safer, more compassionate future: one survivor, one conversation, one act of solidarity at a time.

💜📚Our Executive Director, Dawn Dalton, joined author Meg Stone last night at Solid State Books for a thought-provoking discussion about her new book, Don't Fight Back: And 10 Other Myths About Crime, Personal Safety, and Gender-Based Violence!

Meg challenged everything we think we know about personal safety, debunking pervasive myths and replacing fear-based thinking with real, evidence-based strategies. It was an empowering evening and such an important conversation. 💪

Thank you to Meg Stone and Solid State Books for having Dawn as part of this incredible night! 🙌
