Domestic Violence Coordinating Council of Greater Omaha

And the Women’s Fund of Greater Omaha

“The Silence Stops Here” Video / Public Service Announcement

Competition

The Domestic Violence Coordinating Council of Greater Omaha (DVCC), through a generous donation from the Women’s Fund, is sponsoring a very important Video/Public Service Announcement (PSA) competition: “The Silence Stops Here.” This is a unique mass marketing, bi-lingual competition that will be promoted throughout the Omaha metropolitan area to increase awareness of domestic violence against all women, including vulnerable women (the elderly, mentally disabled, physically disabled, hearing or visually impaired) through the promotion of a video/public service announcement competition. The Silence Stops Here film will also have Spanish subtitles to be more accessible to at-risk populations in the Omaha Metro Area.
