In honor of Wear Purple Day, our Domestic Violence Unit, along with members from across the department, proudly wore purple this past Thursday to raise awareness and stand with survivors in our community.

We stand united against domestic violence. To every survivor: we see you, we support you, and we remain firmly committed to your safety. Together, we can build a safer, stronger Charlotte for all.
