OBIA is raising awareness about Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) and Brain Injury. Purple Thursday, October 17, 2024, is a day to raise awareness about the intersection between brain injury and intimate partner violence with a goal to eliminate it. IPV can occur in people of all ages, genders, sexual orientations, socioeconomic classes, levels of education, races and cultures; however, it disproportionately happens to women.
Join us on PURPLE THURSDAY, October 17, 2024.
You can show your support by:
- Wear PURPLE on October 17, 2024
- Take a selfie or a group shot of you, your family or co-workers all wearing PURPLE.
- Post it with #PurpleThursday
