October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Everyone deserves to feel safe, supported and respected.

This year's theme, “With Survivors, Always,” reminds us that supporting survivors goes beyond raising awareness. It means listening, believing and helping people access the support they need.

For Delaware residents affected by domestic violence, help is available. The Delaware Department of Justice's Victims’ Compensation Assistance Program (VCAP) may help eligible victims of violent crime with expenses such as mental health counseling, medical care, temporary housing and relocation.

La violencia doméstica no ocurre en de forma aislada. Para las personas que experimentan cosas como la pobreza, la falta de acceso a una vivienda segura y accesible y otras inequidades, el impacto de la violencia doméstica puede ser aún peor. Cuando nos unimos como comunidad para atender estos factores de riesgo, como asegurar que todos tengan un lugar accesible para vivir, las personas serán menos propensas a sufrir violencia doméstica desde un principio.

Domestic violence does not happen in a vacuum. For people who experience things like poverty, lack of access to safe and affordable housing, and other inequities, the impact of domestic violence can be even worse. When we come together as a community to address these risk factors, like ensuring that everyone has an affordable place to live, people will be less likely to experience domestic violence in the first place.
