The Haven Project will display the Silent Witnesses around campus in October for Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
A silent witness is a silhouette with the true story of an adult or child that was killed by domestic violence. We must commit to be their voices now that they can no longer speak for themselves.
The display is available:
- October 3–13, Eberly Hall
- October 13–31, Jane Leonard Hall
- October 31, Oak Grove 11:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m.
Trigger Warning: Stories contain descriptive themes of sexual and domestic violence, including child abuse. The material may be triggering for some individuals.
Statistic: In Pennsylvania, 104 victims died from domestic violence last year. - PCADV
