Details

Welcome to the Domestic Violence Symposium: The Invisible Monster in the Community

📅 October 31, 2025 | 🕙 10:00 AM (ET) | 📍 House of Ruth Maryland

Join us for a powerful and transformative gathering as we confront the silent epidemic of domestic violence (DV)/intimate partner violence (IPV) and illuminate the path forward through truth-telling, resilience, and community action.

Hosted at House of Ruth Maryland (2521 North Charles Street - Baltimore, MD 21218), this symposium will elevate survivor voices through storytelling, healing-centered dialogue, and solution-driven conversations. Featuring courageous participants from the House of Ruth Maryland Storytellers Project, we will explore how personal narratives can become tools for healing, advocacy, and change. Together, we will honor the lived experiences of survivors, uncover the roots of generational trauma, and imagine what’s possible when silence is broken and community rises.

Let’s build a future where voices are heard, cycles are broken, and thriving is the story.
We invite you to stand with us, learn with us, and be part of creating a safer, more compassionate world.

Info: Join us for a powerful Intimate Partner Violence (IPV)/Domestic Violence Awareness (DV) symposium designed to educate, empower, and inspire. This event will explore key topics like protecting survivors' confidential information, combating cyberstalking, addressing insecure attachment styles and fostering multistate collaboration for IPV victims. Attendees will also hear shared stories of lived trauma, strength and healing from IPV/DC survivors. Whether you are an advocate, professional or concerned community member, this symposium offers vital insight of the negative impact of IPV/DC in the community and provides actionable strategies for change. Complimentary lunch will be provided.
