What is Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM)?
Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) is observed every October nationwide to raise awareness about the devastating impact of intimate partner violence on survivors and their children. This month aims to rally communities all over the United States in support of survivors, including Central Oregon.
Even in our beautiful part of this state 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will still experience domestic violence in their lifetimes.
Join us this October in being a part of a community that supports life without violence.

I lived in constant fear….
My ex-husband was an alcoholic that would get aggressive with me while he was drinking (which was every day) and this would happen in front of our young son. I was connected to Saving Grace. I am overwhelmed with gratitude and thank you does not even cover how I feel after working with Saving Grace. My life is forever changed.
I am in safe housing….
now, and I have a housing voucher and will be able to continue to keep my children safe and happy. Saving Grace has a special place in my heart. When I came to shelter it was the first time in years, I was able to fall asleep and not be afraid. My children and I felt a sense of peace and joy we hadn't had. I will be forever grateful. As for the staff I have never encountered people who have shown me such empathy and compassion, without judgement.
