About PurpleOne Partners Program
Learn about the PurpleOne Partners Program:
Domestic violence agencies from across the nation, united against domestic violence.
Abusers Don't Stop at State Lines. Neither Do We.
The PurpleOne Program was started by Safe Journey, a domestic violence agency in rural northwestern Pennsylvania, as a coordinated community response to address domestic violence and assist victims in receiving help.
They quickly realized that agencies across the U.S. could utilize the PurpleOne Training to help their own communities unite against domestic violence and that a national network of Safe Places for Domestic Violence Victims would mean that no matter where a victim goes they can receive the help they deserve.
So, today, PurpleOne is available to state-recognized domestic violence agencies that offer comprehensive domestic violence services with the goal of empowering community members who are trained to recognize, respond to and refer victims and empowering victims to get help.
With PurpleOne, no matter where a victim lives, they can know their community supports them in getting help and that if they see a PurpleOne Dot in a business window, they can receive information about the local domestic violence agency and services available to them.
How the PurpleOne Partner Program Works
-
PurpleOne Training
Partners are trained and provided resources to implement the PurpleOne Training in their communities. As a Partner, you will receive the PurpleOne Training PowerPoint, which can be customized to add your agency's information; a Facilitator Guide with a word-by-word script; and downloadable participant handouts.
-
Safe Places For Domestic Violence Victims Network
As a Partner, your community has access to the Safe Places Network for Domestic Violence Victims. As you train individuals from businesses in your community, they can apply to become Safe Places. Once accepted in the network, these Safe Places become part of the national Safe Place Finder and Safe Places App so victims can locate Safe Places near them.
-
Victim Awareness Campaign
One of the most utilized features of the PurpleOne Partners Program is the variety of templated victim awareness materials that are available to you to both help you market your PurpleOne Program and ensure victims receive the help they need. These professionally designed materials range from postcards and brochures to TV commercials and unique educational videos. All can be customized to with your agency's information.
What Drives Us
We imagine a world where domestic violence has been eradicated. The only way to do that is through a coordinated effort of many agencies, many individuals and many businesses across the nation coming together -- united -- against domestic violence.
