Family Violence Prevention Month is here.

Family Violence Prevention Month is here! Each year, plenty of inspiring events take place across the province raising awareness of family violence and where Albertans can go for help. If you are hosting an event to recognize Family Violence Prevention Month and would like it profiled on the Alberta.ca events page, please email us the event details and we’ll work with you to have it profiled.

Here are a few other simple ways you can participate in Family Violence Prevention Month:

• Talk with your friends, family, and colleagues about respectful and healthy relationships.
• Check in with those you care about. A simple “are you okay?” can go a long way!
• Help to promote awareness by sharing local resources or family violence prevention campaign material on social media, in your work spaces or other public environments.
• Download and share Family Violence Prevention Month awareness resources such as posters, social media graphics, email signatures, or email signatures.

Small actions like these do make a difference. Collectively, we can pave a pathway for future generations to speak up and end family violence.
