Sigma Theta Tau Rho Alpha is supporting Center for Domestic Peace, bringing youth and young adult awareness to dating abuse. The donations made at our bakesale will help support the cause. Come learn about ways to detect if you may be experience abuse in your relationship, get some tips on how to talk to your roommates or friends about dating violence, and express yourself through writing messages about your experience with abuse.

1 out of 3 people are effected by domestic abuse across America. This means that out of 22,000 students at DU, 700 students may be effected by this problem. Come see the "FIELD OF HEARTS" by the Caleruga Lawn after sundown. We will have 700 glowing hearts that represent your messages :)

Dating abuse is something that impacts many young adults in the US, including students at Dominican University. In fact, females ages 16-24 are more vulnerable to intimate partner violence than any other age group– at a rate almost triple the national average (U.S. Department of Justice). Crazy, huh?

As such, we want to raise awareness about this issue on Dominican’s campus. February is dating abuse awareness month and the week of Valentine’s Day is RESPECT Week, a time to do just that. Center for Domestic Peace (in San Rafael), STT- Rho Alpha, and Dominican are teaming up to plan some activities during RESPECT week to let people know what the warning signs of dating abuse are and how to get help if you or someone you know is experiencing it. Look out for more information on these events to come.

With the holidays fast approaching, it's nice to reflect on things you are thankful for in life...But what about the people who aren't so fortunate? Rho Alpha members, lets get together and make a difference in thousands of lives this holiday season! Volunteer November 20th 9am-12pm at the Marin Food Bank.
Projects typically involve gleaning fresh produce, repackaging bulk food into family-sized quantities, assembling grocery boxes for seniors, and sorting donations from food drives and grocery stores. In a single shift, you'll be helping thousands of people get the food they need.

This will be a fun event that we can all do together! Dress warm, b/c the warehouse can be a little cold (trust me I know) ...hey we can all wear our hoodies!! ;)

Details:
Date: Wednesday, Nov 20
Start time: 9:00am
End time: 12:00pm
Capacity: 10 Available
