The White Ribbon Group, a subcommittee of the Sudbury-Wayland-Lincoln Domestic Violence Roundtable, is excited to announce its fall community offering as part of Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October.
“Who Am I and Why Am I Here” is an interactive and experiential community education event, focused on engaging MetroWest community members in dialogue around our part in reducing domestic violence and how it impacts us all. The event will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 21 at 7 p.m., in the Community Meeting Room aat the Goodnow Public Library, 21 Concord Road in Sudbury.
“Who Am I and Why Am I Here” will focus on connecting with community members, discussing our roles in addressing domestic violence, masculinity and the threads that bring us together. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in organized breakout groups, conversation prompts and community dialogue, led by public health and community engagement leaders. Through a series of questions and prompts, the group will dig deep into what draws us to this crucial topic and provide support and insight into how we can better address the community’s needs.
“We are thrilled to be hosting “Who Am I and Why Am I Here” and look forward to rich conversation, the opportunity to connect and learn what draws us all to helping reduce domestic violence,” said J Verhoosky, Director of Youth & Family Services for the Town of Wayland and White Ribbon Group member. “This event provides a valuable platform for community members to discuss a variety of paths that have brought us together, discuss action steps to reduce violence, and identify ways to take action within the region.
“We hope you can join us and be a part of this enriching dialogue!”
