October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month
DARS is more than just helping victims, it’s about our dedication to spreading awareness and educating our community in person on how to navigate supportive services available for you or someone you know who may need help. DARS invited various community partners throughout Utah to join us in a friendly softball competition in observance of Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
Join us in person!
October 4th at 11am-3pm in Sandy. (more park details soon)
October weather in Utah is beautiful which is why we created this community event in the park for you to join in on. We recruited over 50 domestic violence professionals teaming up as one to represent our dedication and support to those who have experienced domestic violence.
Resources, support tables, softball, and uplifting activities will accompany the event. Maybe a dunk tank too!
Let’s Play Ball!
There are 4 teams created to help represent the supportive services most survivors need in their time of crisis.
Team 1: DARS-Domestic Abuse Recovery Solutions. We are the steady foundation and main contact for those who have experienced domestic violence. We immediately begin creating goal plans tailored to fit each survivor’s need then help them navigate and maintain multiple resources together every step of the way. DARS step-by-step realistic navigation plan helps reduce the anxiety of knowing who to reach out to for help.
Team 2: Police. Your local police department are there to help protect victims and survivors in their crisis.
Team 3: Victim Advocates. System-based Victim Advocates in your city help you navigate the legal aspects of your case.
Team 4: Therapists. Licensed trauma-focused therapists throughout our community assist in your healing process at your pace and without judgment.
Your attendance to this event may help you discover unknown critical resources. Together we can help eliminate the stigma associated when reaching out for help and provide a linear experience for those in need by doing this. See you there!
