THIS YEAR'S "IT'S TIME TO TALK" DAY WILL BE HELD ON THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8, 2011.

LIZ CLAIBORNE INC. AND ITS PARTNERS have been joining forces for It's Time to Talk Day annually as a way to encourage greater public dialogue about domestic violence. 

Around the country, talk radio, government officials, domestic violence advocates, businesses, schools and     the public-at-large take a moment - or more - to talk openly about an issue that affects nearly one in three women at some point in their lifetime. In fact, millions of talk radio listeners around the country were reached with the message since the inception of It’s Time To Talk Day in 2004. 
 
TAKE A MOMENT TO TALK ABOUT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN YOUR COMMUNITY

• At work, ask your employer to address this issue and help employees who are in need by putting domestic violence hotline numbers in common spaces (i.e. lunch rooms, bathrooms, bulletin boards).
• Ask at your local school to see if the issue of dating violence is being addressed and urge them to adopt the Love Is Not Abuse curriculum to prevent teen dating violence.
• Contact your local domestic violence organization to find out what they need – beyond money, they might need household goods, toys, cloths and other things you might be able to provide.
