Domestic Violence Awareness Month 2012

Map of Texas female domestic violence fatalities

In 2010, we lost 142 Texas women to domestic violence. This DVAM, we challenge all of Texas to Go Purple and strive for a state where no woman is killed by a husband, partner, or boyfriend.

Why Purple?

Purple has historically been the color tied to domestic violence advocacy. This year, we’ve applied purple to our map of  our annual Honoring Texas Victims: Domestic Violence Fatalities list.

Look at the map. Where you see purple, those Texas counties were free from a domestic violence fatality this past year. Where you see white, you see where we must redouble our efforts due tragic fatalities.

Please join us and Go Purple!
