Host an Event for DAIS

Events hosted by members of our community are vital for DAIS. Many people don’t know about the array of services that DAIS offers, and they are also unaware of the prevalence of domestic violence in Dane County. You can help us raise awareness and financial assistance by having a casual event at your home or business.

Email us at devcomm@abuseintervention.org

  • About your event so that we can help promote it on social media, if you would like! Tagging us on social media is also great, but we sometimes won’t catch the notification, so it is also best to email us.
  • For a high quality image of our logo
  • For any additional collaboration requests, depending on the scope of your event (see left image)

If you are considering hosting an event for DAIS, see our Community Event Toolkit for more information and contact us at devcomm@abuseintervention.org with any questions or call 608-251-1237 ext. 308
