DC SAFe annual Events

spring

Each May, DC SAFE hosts its Annual Spring Luncheon—a free event that offers an opportunity to learn more about our mission and connect with the community. Over lunch, guests engage in a thought-provoking panel discussion featuring DC SAFE staff and experts in the field, highlighting innovative programs in our community and exploring practical ways we can all support survivors in everyday life. Stay tuned for details on our May 2026 event, and check out photos from our 2025 luncheon here.

During Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October, DC SAFE hosts its flagship Keep DC SAFE Event, a gathering to honor the community partners who make our work possible and celebrate the progress we’ve achieved together. It is also a moment of solidarity, raising critical funds for DC SAFE and bringing attention to the ongoing impact of domestic violence in our city. Check back soon for details on our October 2026 event, and view photos from our 2025 celebration here.

The DC SAFE dash 5K & Half is an empowering community event that directly supports survivors of domestic violence. Whether you walk, jog, or run, participation in our charity run during Domestic Violence Awareness Month helps raise awareness and vital funds for DC SAFE. Every step provides critical support for our emergency response services and the essential resources survivors need as they move toward safety and healing. We’ll be sharing 2026 registration details soon—hope you’ll join us!
