Preventing Family & Domestic Violence
The Rotary Club of Salisbury (SA) is committed to saying NO to Family and Domestic Violence. This is more than just a message—it’s a pledge to promote respectful relationships and create a safer, more supportive community for all. Family and domestic violence has lasting impacts on individuals, families, and communities. Standing up against it means advocating for respect, safety, and wellbeing. It shows that as a community, we believe everyone deserves to live free from fear and harm.
