DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH, October 2015:
Beginning today, Army leaders at all levels will emphasize the positive impact of Army Values on relationships as they join the nation in observing Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM). Domestic violence awareness campaigns will bring awareness to an issue which undermines the Army Values and has the potential to end careers -- and even lives. This year’s Department of Defense theme is “It starts with respect: Live by core values to keep your relationship healthy and strong.”  Programs are designed to promote awareness, encourage reporting, provide safety for victims and ensure treatment or administrative action for offenders. The Army Victim Advocacy Program, a program within U.S. Installation Management Command, provides prevention, education and intervention services for victims. For more information about victim advocacy services available at your installation, contact your local Army Community Service center. For immediate assistance, call Military OneSource at 1-800-342-9647 or the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233.
