RESOLUTION RECOGNIZING OCTOBER 2016 AS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH
WHEREAS, violence against women and children continues to become more prevalent as
a social problem as a result of the imbalance of power due to gender and age; and

not confined to any individual circumstances or groups of people, but across all economic, racial,
sexual, and social demographics; and

security, and humanity, through the systematic use of physical, emotional, sexual, verbal, and
economic control and/or abuse; and
WHEREAS,the impact of domestic violence is wide ranging,directly affecting our families,
our communities and society as a whole; and
WHEREAS, the prevalence of domestic violence may be diminished by educating and
empowering the community to develop and maintain healthy relationships.

domestic violence programs, the Butte County Board of Supervisors do hereby proclaim the
