Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month is held each May to raise awareness of the profound social and personal impacts of domestic and family violence and to highlight the support available to those affected.

This month aims to:

  • raise community awareness of domestic and family violence and its impacts
  • promote a clear message of no tolerance of domestic and family violence in communities
  • ensure those who are experiencing domestic and family violence know how to access help and support
  • encourage people who use abuse and/or violence to take responsibility for their abusive behaviour and seek support to change

Join the Murray Bridge Regional Collaboration on Violence Against Women and Children for the annual Domestic Violence Vigil - a time for the community to come together, honour lives lost and stand in solidarity with survivors.

The vigil is the time for the community to come together to remember those who have died due to domestic and family violence.

Join us on Friday 2 May From 4.30-5.30pm at the Place of Courage – Sturt Reserve.

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic or family violence, support is available. Contact 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) for confidential help.
