It's pretty common knowledge that October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Obviously this is a cause that is close to many, and one that I fully support.
But, did you know that October is also National Domestic Violence Awareness Month? I know a few victims of domestic violence personally, and this is another cause that I cannot support enough.
If you, or someone you know has been a victim of domestic violence here are a few resources. The first link is a local (Seattle/Bellevue area) organization that a friend of Madre works with.
Eastside Domestic Violence
National Domestic Violence Hotline
National Coalition Against Domestic Violence
More resources
The last link takes you to a domestic violence resource page collected by the publisher of womenlawyers.com. It's pretty comprehensive.
PS: N is home this weekend for a quick visit!
