It takes all of us
Domestic Violence Awareness Month is an opportunity to come together to raise awareness, promote safe and healthy families, and support peace and healing in our communities.
Creating safe communities doesn’t happen in isolation. It takes families, providers, community leaders and neighbors working together. Hoʻoikaika Partnership works to strengthen Maui County’s prevention and provider networks, build connections and share resources that help keep children and families safe and supported.
For Hoʻoikaika Partnership, preventing violence starts with strengthening the relationships, connections and support systems that help children and families thrive.
This October, we invite our Maui community to stand together for peace and for the next generation.
Be part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month
The Men’s March is one way to take action. You can also help by:
- Learning about domestic violence and its impact on families.
- Talking openly about healthy, respectful relationships.
- Supporting survivors and connecting ʻohana with resources.
- Sharing information with your friends, family and community.
- Helping create safe and nurturing environments for keiki.
Awareness is a starting point.
Building safer communities takes all of us.
