We’re proud to share the Ada County Commissioners Domestic Violence Proclamation, officially dedicating this month to raising awareness, honoring survivors, and strengthening our community's resolve to end intimate partner violence.

Domestic violence affects people of all backgrounds, genders, and socioeconomic statuses. By signing and sharing this proclamation, we continue to pledge to:
• Listen to and believe survivors when they share their stories.
• Provide a through on door safe space at ACVSC for victims, survivors, and their families to access community resources:
medical forensic exams, follow up medical care, assistance with civil legal assistance, counseling, patient navigation, and law enforcement reporting if desired.
• If you or your someone you care about is in a Domestic Violence relationship, please encourage them to reach out for support.

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

This month, we recognize the strength and resilience of survivors and reaffirm our commitment to creating communities where everyone feels safe, respected, and supported. Domestic violence can affect anyone, and no one should have to navigate it alone. Our Center is here to offer a safe place to turn, compassionate support, and connections to resources for those who need help. Together, we can raise awareness, break the silence, and remind survivors that support is available.

At this year’s proclamation, a survivor stood before us and asked a tough question: how many people around us are suffering behind closed doors right now?

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. The Ada County Prosecutor’s remains deeply committed to pursuing justice for victims and holding those who harm them accountable.

If you or someone you know needs help, our partners at the Ada County Victim Services Center are there to help. 💜

In anticipation of Domestic Violence Awareness Month this October, we joined the Women's and Children's Alliance, first responders, community leaders, and fellow advocates to officially proclaim the month and reaffirm our shared commitment to ending domestic violence.
Domestic violence affects individuals, families, and communities in ways that are often unseen. Raising awareness means recognizing the signs, breaking the silence, and creating a community where survivors feel safe, supported, and empowered to seek help.
Together, we stand to honor survivors, and remind anyone experiencing abuse that they are not alone. Everyone deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported. 💜

Stronger communities start with strong partnerships.

We were honored to host Partners in Protection training for our community mental health providers. Together, we learn, grow, and strengthen our ability to support victims and survivors. When we collaborate, we create communities where people can heal, thrive, and feel supported.

Thank you to our presenters from , , , & Idaho Department of Health and Welfare.

Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia affect millions of people and can create unique challenges for older adults, families, and caregivers. For some older adults, increased dependence on others for care and support may also create greater vulnerability to abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Awareness starts with recognizing the signs and understanding how to respond when you have concerns.

Suspected abuse, neglect, or exploitation of an older adult can be reported to Adult Protective Services (APS) or your local law enforcement agency. Everyone deserves to live with safety, dignity, and respect. Sharing information, knowing where to report, and speaking up when something doesn't feel right can help protect older adults in our community.
