October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. 💜

If it doesn’t feel like love, it isn’t.

Throughout October, the City of Newark and the Shani Baraka Women’s Resource Center invite residents to join us for a series of events focused on awareness, healing, support and breaking the cycle of domestic violence.

From real conversations and community remembrance to movement and healing, these events are an opportunity to come together, uplift survivors and connect our community with resources that can help.

💜 Help is available. You are not alone. Swipe through for upcoming events and domestic violence resources available in Newark and throughout New Jersey.
If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 911.

Affordable storefronts help local entrepreneurs put down roots, reach new customers, and build alongside the neighborhoods they serve.

As part of the Keeping Newark Affordable legislation proposal, a new ordinance incentivizes developers to create affordable ground-floor retail space and affordable housing through a 1% reduction in long-term tax abatement payments or five additional years on abatements shorter than 30 years.
