Lunch & Learn: Domestic Violence

Domestic violence can be defined as a pattern of behavior in any relationship that is used to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. Domestic violence can happen to anyone of any race, age, sexual orientation, religion or gender. It can happen to couples who are married, living together or who are dating. Domestic violence affects people of all socioeconomic backgrounds and education levels.

There are nearly 17,000 reported victims of domestic violence living in Colorado. Experts say most cases are unreported, so those numbers just scratch the surface.

Join us in January to get an in-depth understanding of the issue of domestic violence in Colorado and learn about how organizations are partnering to help survivors. 

Our expert speakers include representatives from:

The Crisis Center, a Mile High United Way Emergency and Basic Needs funded partner, is working to end domestic violence and ensure communities are free of violence through advocacy, education, and prevention.
