Voters

You can:

• Visit GCADV and GCFV websites often from January through April to monitor the legislative session and respond to policy alerts to call your legislator.
• Write, call, or visit your elected officials and tell them that family violence is an important issue for you as a voter.
• Find out how candidates stand on family violence issues before voting for them.
• Attend Stop Violence Against Women Day at the Capitol to show legislators how important this issue is to voters (usually January of each year).
