Dallas is marking Domestic Violence Awareness Month with action and engagement at the core of its city governance. A notable event in this effort is the forthcoming Domestic Violence Awareness Month Luncheon, set to highlight the city's dedication to confronting and curbing the impact of domestic violence. The luncheon, hosted by Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Gay Donnell Willis and Mayor Pro Tem Jesse Moreno, promises to put forth valuable insights into the local landscape of this pressing issue.
On the agenda are updates showcasing data and trends from the City's Domestic Violence Dashboard, which highlight the strides made and the challenges that lie ahead. Not to mention, representatives from the Dallas Police Department will be on hand to provide on-the-ground perspectives. According to a bulletin released by the City of Dallas, nonprofit leaders, including Jan Langbein, CEO of Genesis Women’s Shelter, are also lined up to contribute to the conversation.
Set to take place in the Sixth Floor Flag Room of Dallas City Hall at 1500 Marilla St., the luncheon will occur between the brisk hours of 12:00 and 1:00 p.m. next Tuesday, October 14. In a gesture of solidarity, attendees have been encouraged to adorn themselves in purple attire, the chosen color symbolizing support for Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Those interested in the broader context of public safety are invited to extend their stay for the City Council Committee on Public Safety, which will commence following the luncheon.
