In recognition of National Domestic Violence Awareness month, Womanspace launches our Communities of Light™ Peace Begins At Home campaign in October, culminating with a Countywide lighting of luminaries on December 4th. This event is a powerful symbol of hope for those impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault in our community. It helps raise awareness and let victims know that they are not alone. Communities of Light™ will launch with a complimentary public reception on Tuesday, October 24, 2017 at 5:30pm at D&R Greenway Land Trust in Princeton, NJ.
