Share Your Story for DVAM

Steps will be hosting our annual Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) Candlelight Vigil & Survivor Speakout on Wednesday, October 29, 2025. (Check out our Instagram for more information and updates as the date approaches.)

Stories make us feel less alone, offer hope, and bring us together. But sharing out loud isn’t for everyone, and that’s okay — your voice still deserves to be heard.

Submit a story here to be shared by a Steps advocate at the vigil. No personal information is required or will be shared (unless you would like to include your name). We invite you to tell us about your experience, healing journey, and/or any reflections that you would like to share. Poems are also welcome.

Please contact steps@stepsvt.org with any questions or concerns. Thank you for allowing us to share your story with others and contribute to our impact. Every voice makes a difference.
