Doorways' Domestic and Sexual Violence Programs Posters |
|
Especially now, it's important that resources are available in places where survivors already are, or are permitted to go. We have created a collection of posters that you can easily print on your home printer, on standard-size office paper. Hang them where they can be seen, such as in your apartment building's elevator. If you do leave home to go grocery shopping, pick up a prescription, or access other essential services, consider taking a poster with you and asking the business to display this resource for their customers. Download now.
