Domestic Violence Awareness Month: SAMHSA’s Commitment to Raising Awareness and Hope for Survivors

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This year, SAMHSA is joining the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Family Violence Prevention and Services (OFVPS) and the National Domestic Violence Hotline in promoting the hashtag #1Thing, which encourages everyone to do just one thing to raise awareness about domestic violence – also known as intimate partner violence. For more information about SAMHSA’s work in gender-based violence prevention and support for survivors, visit Gender-Based Violence and the Effects on Behavioral Health on SAMHSA.gov. To access a calendar of events and resources for activities, online toolkits, educational materials, webinars, social media engagement, and resources that can be shared nationally, visit the ACF OFVPS Domestic Violence Awareness Month Portal. https://www.samhsa.gov/blog/domestic-violence-awareness-month-samhsas-commitment-raising-awareness-hope-survivors?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=45109a96e8-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_16_04_45&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-45109a96e8-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D&utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=addcd0310a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_17_08_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-addcd0310a-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D Domestic Violence Awareness Month Portal https://www.acf.hhs.gov/ofvps/domestic-violence-awareness-month-portal?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=45109a96e8-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_16_04_45&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-45109a96e8-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D&utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=addcd0310a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_17_08_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-addcd0310a-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D Everyone deserves healthy relationships. https://www.thehotline.org/?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=45109a96e8-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_16_04_45&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-45109a96e8-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D&utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=addcd0310a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_17_08_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-addcd0310a-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D Gender-Based Violence and the Effects on Behavioral Health https://www.samhsa.gov/gender-based-violence-behavioral-health?utm_source=SAMHSA&utm_campaign=addcd0310a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2023_10_17_08_03&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_-addcd0310a-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D
