Buttons to raise awareness about domestic abuse

Students in the Intimate Partner Violence class made and are giving away domestic violence awareness buttons to anyone who asks, and will also have them available in the cafeteria and at the Student Services windows. The students want to make it clear that at Saint Mary’s, we know intimate partner violence happens, we aren’t afraid to name it, and support is available. Remember a friend, respect a mother, challenge a brother, give hope to those suffering invisibly among us. Pick your reason, and wear a button to raise awareness about domestic violence.

Students you can ask for a button are: Amanda Gage, Jessica Gzik, Jacki Hagel, Tanya Kelly, Glenna Krzyzanowski, Katie Nowak and Jessica Sance.
