Topic: Domestic Violence in the Workplace
The month of October is "Prevention of Domestic Violence Month." ASU is partnering with First Lady Diane Bentley, the Verizon company and other colleges and universities within the state of Alabama to bring greater public awareness to the crime of domestic violence and its crippling effect on families within our community.
Domestic violence is not limited to any race, religion, class or sector of our community. Unfortunately, many victims of domestic violence suffer in silence because they are afraid to come forward. Some of those who are suffering may be right here on our campus. This should not be the case. Therefore, Alabama State University is asking all of the Montgomery SHRM Chapter family to weigh in on this critical and important matter.
We solicit the SHRM Montgomery Chapter to partner with Alabama State University on this important endeavor. If you have old cell phones, bring them to the SHRM Chapter Meeting, Thursday, October 25, at the ASU Acadome Banquet Room and collaborate with the ASU Family and donate them to the Verizon Hopeline project. Verizon will refurbish these phones and give them to victims of domestic violence so that they can call for help when they are confronted with this criminal behavior.
