October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. We’re thankful for the work our partners at Safe Place and Rape Crisis Center (SPARCC) and Hope Family Services do in this space. In Sarasota, Manatee, and DeSoto counties, domestic violence ranks among the top reasons children are taken into protective care. Last year alone, nearly 90 children came into our care because of domestic violence. Witnessing domestic violence can leave lasting emotional scars on children. While these experiences may never fade, with the right support, children can learn positive communication skills and become resilient as they grow.

October is Domestic Violence Action Month, a time for us to come together, raise awareness, and take action towards eliminating domestic violence. Educating the community equips individuals with the skills and understanding to foster healthy relationships, creating a safer and more compassionate community for everyone. Here is a Monday Myth for you about domestic violence: MYTH: Domestic violence relationships are 100% violent, 100% of the time. REALITY: These relationships are so complex and often do not start out violent. There may be genuine love for the partner causing harm and fervent hope that things will get better and the abuse will stop. Love and hope are two powerful reasons why a survivor may stay in a relationship.
