Tuesday April 8, Town Hall on Intimate Violence

This message was sent to the QUALM email list. We've reproduced it here as a public service.

During our lifetimes, virtually every one of us will have a close friend who is surviving intimate partner violence, or we will become survivors ourselves. It's time to pull back the covers and for our communities to engage in this overdue discussion.

Join Rainbow Response** for a Town Hall meeting featuring speakers on defining intimate partner violence (IPV), along with the medical, mental health, and legal responses to it. A time for your questions will be provided, along with printed resources for several local and national organizations.

WHEN: Tuesday, April 8, 7:00-8:30pm

WHERE: HRC Equality Forum, 1650 1640 Rhode Island Ave NW

Refreshments provided.

Come! Engage! Be empowered!

** Rainbow Response: The Greater DC Coalition to Address Intimate Partner Violence in the LGBTQ Communities

Good to see. That will be 8590 days since my college boyfriend raped me and I ended 13 months of insults, coercion, and suppressing my desire to be fully Out. No one has to settle for abuse in return for a few tentative "I love yous"
