How do we go from surviving to thriving? Join us for our next Y-Dub Discussions in Preble County during YWCA USA’s Week Without Violence. Held at My Neighbor’s House, this casual community conversation will focus on the importance of allyship for ensuring freedom and dignity for all during Domestic Violence Awareness Month and beyond.
For more than 20 years, YWCA USA has set aside one week in October as a Week Without Violence – a week to raise awareness and engage action to end the broad spectrum of violence – as part of a global movement with World YWCA to end violence against women and girls.
Through basic tenets like respect and responsibility for one another, together we can move beyond resilience, helping create communities in which women and girls are able to thrive. During this interactive, in-person event, we’ll equip you with the tools to start where you are and do your part to strengthen the community, joining us On a Mission of eliminating racism and empowering women.
