Bringing Light to Domestic Violence Awareness Month
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, an important time to bring attention to all those impacted -- the victims and survivors, their children, families, friends, and their communities. Domestic violence affects people regardless of their background, and it's crucial for us to foster a workplace culture of empathy & assistance for those who may be going through such challenges.
In partnership with Jersey Cares, we are hosting a First Night Kit Collection Drive to help support survivors by providing them with essential items on the "first night" of their stay at local domestic violence shelters, transitional housing facilities, runaway safe havens, and foster homes. Your donations will help domestic abuse survivors take their first steps towards a life free from violence.
For all those unable to come into the office, you can ship donations directly to us at 3 Sylvan Way, Parsippany, NJ, 07054, Attn: M. Diaz (3rd Flr), or shop online here where your items will be shipped directly to Jersey Cares.
Thank you for lending your support to this important cause, and for making a meaningful impact to survivors of domestic violence.
If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic abuse, please call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 800-799-7233. Our Employee Assistance Program, CCA@YourService, is also available to provide 24/7 confidential support, counseling and access to local resources: 800-833-8707 or www.myccaonline.com (company code: ipgus).
