DVC Media Capacity

Hello DV Council members,

The Media Committee works hard to develop strategic media advocacy to raise awareness about domestic violence throughout the year and to also coordinate media responses when requested. We would like to prepare a ready "bank" of spokespeople who are prepared to speak to media when we call upon them to do so. These can include speaking to media at DV Council events, radio shows, television interviews, quotes for print media, etc. We will provide the training. If you are interested, please complete the very brief attached survey link. Thank you.
