2016 No More Abuse Event 

Last fall, St. Louis leaders came together to say “No More” to violence against women and children. 400 guests were in attendance at a free public awareness event, which highlighted our region’s best practices. It gave each guest concrete ways to break the silence and end the violence in our community.

This September, we want to build on that momentum and continue to provide attendees with ways to raise awareness about family violence and support our St. Louis neighbors who are at risk. We will hear from expert speakers and host a dynamic panel discussion aimed at moving the needle toward prevention. Join us in continuing to turn words into action: No More Abuse.
