Every year, the Domestic Violence Coordinating Council of Greater Omaha (DVCC) hosts an awards ceremony, recognizing outstanding individuals, programs and organizations that had a significant impact on our community in the area of domestic violence.  This year, the DVCC is proud to announce Victor Rivers as the featured keynote speaker.  In 1999, Victor Rivers became a leading activist in the cause of preventing violence against women and children. As the national spokesperson for the National Network to End Domestic Violence, he uses his own harrowing story of surviving a home where abuse took place on the level of torture to raise awareness about what he considers our greatest yet most curable social disease.
