Dear John,

Domestic Violence is a health and safety issue that impacts the wellbeing of our colleagues and our workplaces. According to the CDC, in the U.S., 1 in 4 women and 1 in 10 men have experienced intimate partner violence, sexual violence, physical violence, or stalking by an intimate partner during their lifetime.

The COVID-19 pandemic has only worsened domestic violence in the United States and across the globe. The isolation, financial hardship, stress, and other issues brought on by the pandemic might trigger violence where there was none before or exacerbate it in households where violence is already a problem.

In recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we invite you to join the Women’s and Fair Practices Departments for our Domestic Violence Virtual Training on Tuesday, October 24, 2023, from 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm (EST).

We hope you'll join us for this important program.

In Solidarity,

Jeremy A. Lannan
AFGE NVP for Women’s and Fair Practices
