You are not alone
Help and support exist
Your community stands with survivors
While a purple light doesn’t mean a home is a shelter, it represents empathy and a commitment to supporting those affected by domestic violence.
Why Awareness Matters
Domestic violence affects people of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. Many victims hesitate to speak up because of fear, shame, or lack of resources.
Raising awareness helps by:
Encouraging conversations about abuse
Helping people recognize warning signs
Connecting victims with support services
Reducing stigma around seeking help
The purple porch light can serve as a conversation starter that encourages communities to talk openly about domestic violence.
Supporting Survivors Beyond the Symbol
Displaying a purple porch light is only one step. True support involves creating environments where survivors feel safe asking for help.
