Many people believe that domestic and sexual violence only ‘happens’ to the weak, the poor and the uneducated. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Domestic and sexual violence is about power and control – it does not discriminate. With one in three women in Michigan having suffered from this violence in their lifetime – survivors are no different from you – they are your friends, your neighbors, your colleagues, your family, you.
HAVEN, Oakland County’s center for the prevention and treatment of domestic and sexual violence has an opportunity for you to support survivors of these violent crimes.
2008 calendars are being produced to celebrate the strength of these survivors and raise money for HAVEN’s services. The calendars are inspirational, educational and poignant. Calendars are available for purchase on October 1, 2007 by visiting www.haven-oakland.org
248-334-1284.
Please assist HAVEN in achieving their mission and helping everyone live without fear. |
