Domestic Violence Awareness Activities

Join WC&S this October for our #WheresYourPurplePGH campaign! Purple is the color of Domestic Violence Awareness, and we’re challenging you to notice just how often it appears in your day.

When you spot purple—whether it’s a shirt, a sign on your commute, or even your morning coffee mug—snap a photo and share it on Facebook or Instagram using #WheresYourPurplePGH. Be sure to tag us (Women’s Center & Shelter of Greater Pittsburgh on Facebook or @wcs_pittsburgh on Instagram) for a chance to be featured on our social channels!

By tuning in to the purple around you, you might be surprised how often you see it, and each time, we hope you’re reminded that Domestic Violence Affects Everyone. Let’s flood our feeds with purple this month!

#WheresYourPurplePGH

Thursday, October 16

Join WC&S and other DV agencies and allies across the country on Thursday, October 16, nationally known as #PurpleThursday. Use wearing purple as a conversation starter and share why ending domestic violence is important to you!
