Community Education
Domestic abuse can be a difficult subject to talk about, but raising awareness is critical to changing existing attitudes and preventing domestic violence.
​
Through our community outreach and education program, Ruth’s House offers:
​
-
Information booths at community events.
-
Presentations to schools, civic groups, clubs, social service agencies, churches, businesses and professional groups that help increase awareness and understanding of domestic abuse
-
Preventive education with middle and high school students that helps youth recognize abuse and develop healthy relationships.
-
Educational workshops that cover topics such as workplace domestic violence, safety planning, domestic violence assessment, gender and domestic violence, and the effects of abuse on children.
​
If you would like for us to be at your next community event or to schedule a training or presentation, please call (252) 940-0007.
