Candlelight Vigil: - Oct. 4, 2022 - Corner Park in Ashland - 6:30pm-8ish - We honor the 10 women who have lost their lives to Domestic Violence and invite their families to remember and speak against domestic violence.  It has happened in Ashland and continues to happen - we must speak out!

Safe Haven's Speak Out: - Oct. 26, 2022 - Freer Filed Community Building - 6pm - 8pm - this is the chance for survivors to tell their stories.  So often the narrative is driven by the abuser whether in the media or legal arena.  The victim's power is in the hands of someone else.  He/She is not given the opportunity to lead the narrative.  This is a powerful time for survivors to speak as survivors and not victims, and to tell their story!
