Thank you for joining the iCare Campaign – and the movement against domestic violence.
View the upcoming iCare Community Events – happening all month long.
iCare is a month-long domestic violence awareness campaign designed to ignite a conversation about domestic violence and how it affects those around us. Did you know, 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience violence with an intimate partner in their lifetimes? Chances are, you know someone that has experienced domestic violence. Thank you for joining with the hundreds of other businesses, organizations, and individuals to work to end domestic violence.
This year is extra special, as we continue to honor 50 year of Harmony House providing shelter, advocacy, education and support to survivors in our community.
Earlier this month, we held our 12th annual iCare Kickoff Breakfast at the Oasis Hotel & Convention Center as an official launch into the 2026 iCare Campaign Season. Nearly 300 people gathered early in the morning to learn about the prevalence and many forms of domestic violence in our community – and how we each play an essential part in speaking up and speaking out against it.
To all the individuals and businesses who attended and picked up your iCare Kits – thank you so much. We know that the materials & resources you plan to share with your teams, customers, and people around you – will have a real impact. We look forward to seeing iCare buttons, window clings, posters, hotline tear offs, social media posts and more, distributed all throughout our city. It takes entire communities being willing to speak out against domestic violence to make a difference. Thank you for being a part of that change!
A special thank you to our 2026 iCare Chair, Dr. Judith Martínez-García and our 2026 event keynote, Dr. Howard Jarvis.
If you were unable to attend, it’s not too late to say iCare. This iCare season, you can join the movement against domestic violence by helping us carry the message of hope and help. Registration is still open!
At the end of the month on October 30th, 2026, Harmony House is hosting a public awareness event called “iCare.”
Join people throughout the community in taking the “iCare” pledge to raise awareness about the domestic violence problem in our community and to raise funds for Harmony House to help save lives.
Domestic violence is not a problem that can be kept hidden any longer. All October long, help us bring awareness and make a difference.
