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.
Register for the Domestic Violence Virtual Workshop on Thursday, October 13, 2022 from 7-9pm EST.
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 Workshop on Thursday, October 13, 2022 from 7-9pm EST via Zoom and Facebook Live. Register now for this important program.
In Solidarity,
Jeremy A. Lannan
NVP for Women’s and Fair Practices
