Our office wore purple in recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month to raise awareness about domestic violence, show support for survivors and highlight the importance of prevention.

Domestic violence can affect people of any age or background. Recognizing the warning signs and knowing where to turn for help can make a difference. Here are a few ways to help:

* Know the warning signs: Domestic violence can include physical harm, threats, intimidation, isolation, financial control and emotional abuse.
* Support survivors: Listen without judgment, respect their choices and remind them they are not alone.
* Share resources: Help connect those who may be experiencing abuse with trusted support services.
* Speak up: Help break the stigma surrounding domestic violence by promoting awareness and healthy relationships.

The Shelby County District Attorney’s Office offers Victim/Witness Services to help victims navigate the criminal justice system and connect with available support. Learn more about our services: https://www.scdag.com/victim-witness-services

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, the National Domestic Violence Hotline is available 24/7 at 800-799-7233 or by texting START to 88788.
