October Is Domestic Violence Awareness Month


So here is my work plug, as I work for Utah Domestic Violence Coalition.
Domestic Violence is a wide spread issue that effects more people then you know. Victims are often ashamed of the violence and know how to hide it well. They do not always speak up or seek out help. It is our role as community members to help these victims of DV. They can be female, male, rich or poor. Any one can be a victim. If you suspect or know someone is a victim to DV please help them.
So on to my point. October is DV Awareness Month. All around the state of Utah, and where ever you live are several awareness activities. On Saturday I participated in the Davis County Run Against Domestic Violence Awareness Race.....and I won. Yep thats right, I took first out of all the women. Granted it was only a 5k but still I got first.
