Everyday Advocate
#EverydayAdvocates are people just like you whose small actions have the potential to change culture. They listen and connect with survivors. They speak out when they see something wrong, and they take action to help support survivors and educate themselves and others.
Every time you tell a survivor you believe them, each time you tell someone a sexist joke isn’t funny or ok, and every hour you volunteer, you are helping to redefine norms. Together, we will create a culture where domestic and sexual violence is not tolerated.
As an #EverydayAdvocate, here are some ways you can help.
- Believe survivors.
- Each October, recognize Domestic Violence Awareness Month by participating in our events and spreading the word about our biggest fundraiser of the year that helps keep our services FREE.
- Educate yourself on how you can support someone experiencing domestic or intimate partner violence.
- Learn about volunteer opportunities with the Center.
- Follow us on social media @thecenteronline and share our messages that inspire you. Plus, sign up to receive our e-news.
- Print one of our service flyers to hang at your workplace, school, place of worship, or elsewhere.
- Carry one of our purple info cards in your wallet or purse.
- Shop our Amazon Wish List to have needed items sent right to the Center.
- Take the pledge to be an #EverydayAdvocate.
- Make a gift to the Center to ensure our services remain 100% FREE for those experiencing domestic violence or sexual assault.
