Ending domestic violence and supporting survivors will take action on many fronts. On The Point, we discuss options to keep survivors safe, even on island communities, how to teach children about healthy relationships, and ways to engage men in community outreach and domestic violence education. No one deserves to be abused for any reason.

Bob Ravenelle, Director of Domestic & Sexual Violence and Grants at Independence House
Pricila Vilaca, Outreach Coordinator, CONNECT to End Violence, part of Martha’s Vineyard Community Services
