BANGOR -- October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and local advocacy group Partners for Peace is using this month to highlight the issue through a series of events.

It's an issue that affects not just victims and survivors, but their families, friends, and entire communities, and it's not hard to lend a hand and show support.

One of the events is Wear Purple Day on October 16th, where folks can simply don purple clothing to raise awareness.
