Light a candle and join us for an event that honors and remembers lives affected by domestic violence. The event includes a cultural ceremony, music, and moving survivor testimonials. The march begins at the corner of N. Mednick Ave. and E. Cesar Chavez Ave. in East Los Angeles, and culminates at the East Los Angeles College Performing Arts Courtyard. This event is free and open to all. 

All Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) events are free and are open to all students, faculty, staff, and the community, so please invite your family & friends!

Instructors: If you are planning to bring a large group or class to any of the events, please RSVP ahead, so that we can make the proper accommodations.

The Sexual Assault Awareness Violence Education Team (SAAVE), is a group of faculty, staff, administrators, students, and community professionals who are dedicated to violence prevention and intervention. By raising awareness, providing resources, and educating people about the different forms that violence can take, we help the ELAC campus community to never have to live in fear.
