Domestic Violence is NOT a Women's Issue!

Updated: Oct 18, 2022

GUEST Blog Panel:


Please welcome C Dewyane Hinnet, Chris Schimel, and Scott Vinci. These men offer support, courage, and patience to help understand what happens in Domestic Violence and how to help in prevention and healing.


MEN MAKE the DIFFERENCE

As a panel discussion, the focus is how MEN MAKE the DIFFERENCE. It is true. Men, it is time to stand and turn to your fellow brothers who are lost in a world of violence and help them to find the strength to love and protect, not control and forget. Men, you make the difference.


You hold the power to stop your fellow man from having control and power over another and turn him around. Help him to get help for his drive for power and control, to heal from his past, and to learn how to protect and provide. We are all on one team, the human team, and we must work together to free each other from the world's evils and turn them to light.


Join this panel, MEN MAKE the DIFFERENCE, on Oct 18th at 6:30 pm MDT. Your minds will be expanded, and your perspective might shift in a manner that you might not expect.
