5th Annual Domestic Violence Awareness Fair, Sept. 22

The public is invited to attend the fifth annual Domestic Violence Awareness Fair from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 22, 2018, at Queen Kaahumanu Center.

Organized by the County of Maui Committee on the Status of Women, the free event is designed to provide information about domestic violence, as well as present resources available to the community.

There will be several community agencies on-site and live music performances by local artists.

“The effects of domestic violence are far reaching in our community,” said event co-chair Jessica Crouse.  “One in three women and one in four men experience violence from their partners in their lifetimes. Events like this allow us to come together as a community for support, education, and to offer hope and healing to those who have experienced and survived domestic violence.”

For more information on the event, contact Pili Nahooikaika in the Mayor’s Office at 270-7855.
