## Caption

Purple was the theme as walkers and runners donned commemorative t-shirts and other attire of the same hue for the annual Domestic Violence Awareness Month 3k Walk/Run event Oct. 2 at Sadowski Field on Fort Cavazos.

Each October, the military community at The Great Place unites to bring awareness to domestic violence, and this year Army Community Service partnered with the Family Advocacy Program, the Victim Advocate Program and Mission Installation Contracting to host the event.

Staff from FAP and VAP, Soldiers, family members and community participants walked and ran just over three miles as a symbol of solidarity in taking a stand against domestic violence.

“This is our way of getting out in the open so we can show people you’re not alone,” Shabazz said. “There are people who are dealing with some of the same things that you’re dealing with. No matter what age, no matter what race, the ethnicity — none of that really matters. It affects everybody. So, this walk is really for us to show that we are a part of this team as much as anybody else is.”
