The Social Work Department is encouraging students, faculty, and staff members to participate in NYS Purple Thursday on Thursday, October 17. Purple is the color of the domestic violence awareness movement, symbolizing peace, courage, survival, and dedication to ending abuse. Share a selfie wearing your purple on social media using the hashtags #PurpleThursday, #DVAM, and #Every1KnowsSome1. Let’s create a sea of purple to show support!

Traditional college-age students are at the highest risk of any age group to experience intimate partner violence. Please join us in raising awareness this month. Please email Jessica Fitzpatrick, associate professor of social work, with questions.
