PROCLAMATION: October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month
Staff Summary (background)
The Mayor and Town Council proclaim October 2026 as Domestic Violence Awareness
Month. While home should be a place of love, safety, and peace, for many it is marked by
violence and fear. Domestic violence impacts individuals of all ages and backgrounds and is a
leading cause of homelessness, particularly among women and children. Its effects are often
devastating and long-lasting. We acknowledge and commend those who support survivors
and work to prevent abuse, and we urge all citizens to raise awareness and support efforts to
end domestic violence.
