About This Event
The Community Awareness Workshop is one of our most impactful recurring events. This hands-on, interactive gathering brings together community members of all backgrounds to build a shared understanding of domestic violence, abuse, and bullying — not just as statistics, but as lived realities that touch every neighborhood.
Participants move through facilitated discussions, scenario-based learning, and practical skill-building exercises designed to translate awareness into action. Whether you're a first-time attendee or a seasoned advocate, you'll leave with new tools, new connections, and a clearer sense of how to make a difference.
Attendance is free. All backgrounds, identities, and experience levels are welcome. Light refreshments are provided. Childcare availability will be confirmed at least 72 hours before the event.
