SAVE’s 6th Annual Breakfast
Eye Opener Open your eyes to Breaking the Silence:
Moving Past Barriers to Change
Why
don’t they just leave? Why do they stay?
These are the first questions people ask when they hear about someone in
an abusive relationship. Perhaps you wonder the same thing. The
answer is not a simple one; it is as unique and complex as the
individual themselves.
Join us on Friday, September 26 as we explore these answers by
revealing some of the barriers and challenges domestic violence
victims face when trying to change their lives for the better. We
aim to enlighten and educate about why victims stay in unhealthy
relationships and show ways that we as a community can give victims
hope and the support they need to permanently break the cycle of
violence.
