It is not just limited to physical harm—it includes psychological, emotional, financial, and other forms of a.bu.se.
A lot of victims suffer in silence, feeling alone and isolated. The purple porch light is a symbol that breaks through that silence.
It tells survivors, “You are seen, you are supported, and you are not alone.”
The color purple stands for strength, courage, and survival. By displaying a purple light, people show solidarity with victims and help raise awareness.
It encourages open conversations about a topic often hidden behind closed doors.
The light becomes a way to educate others about the signs of ab.us.e and the importance of standing with people affected.
