Domestic violence can happen in every community, and victims can be of any gender, race, or socioeconomic status.
This week, residents are encouraged to stop by City Hall and the Community Activity Center to pick up a free purple light bulb! This initiative is part of the city's Human Rights Commission's purple light initiative to shine a light on domestic violence. This effort encourages everyone in the city to replace their outdoor lights with purple light bulbs to raise awareness of this issue.
All participants can send photos of their light bulbs in use to communications@brooklynpark.org. Pictures will be shared on the city's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages.
