Be Part of No More Day

Mar 13, 2012 — Categories: ,

Domestic violence, dating abuse and sexual assault are not easy to talk about, although they impact millions of men, women and children every year. Because of the stigma and shame, these issues often remain hidden in our society. NO MORE seeks to bring these issues into the national spotlight to generate more attention, more resources and more action to prevent them. NO MORE aims to empower bystanders of domestic violence, dating abuse and sexual assault in every community to break their silence and get involved.
