OCTOBER! DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH.

The month of October is the month of Domestic Violence Awareness which was first held in October 1981. The goal is to educate people about domestic violence, its impact on the victims, and how you can get help for yourself and for someone you know. Domestic violence is any act that negatively affects the physical, emotional, economical and spiritual well-being of an individual.The purple color is worn for this movement, its a symbol of courage, of peace, of honor and the means to end this act of violence.  Domestic violence involves families including child abuse, elder abuse, and any form of abuse between family members. The impacts and aftermath of this inhumane act can never be overemphasized, the victims of domestic violence suffer all kinds of distress, the fear, the loss of self, the paranoia, the depression and the nightmares. It really takes a miracle and interventions to get them back on their feet, to be able to love, trust and live again. We hope that this month brings salvation to everybody affected by this inhumane act, that they are reached, they get the help they need and they recover and help others get better.

To every family or individual that has lost a loved one through domestic violence, we pray for strength and healing, we hope that you help inspire individuals and create awareness in your communities and neighborhood in this month, to get the help they need.




"We overcome and together we create the change that we desire".

HOW THE SKIN PROTECTS US FROM HARMFUL INVADERS.

Our skin is part of our immune system. Immune system consists of network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect our body from infectious organism such as bacteria, virus etc. Our immune system destroys any foreign particles that tries to invade our body by mounting an immune response.  Our immune system is designed to identify self from non-self. Self are molecules such as proteins, that are a part of our body. Non-self refers to particles that are not made by the body. Our body recognizes this substance as potentially harmful. Example of non-self-particles are bacteria, viruses, and parasites. These organisms produce proteins called antigens that allow our body to recognize them as harmful. How the skin protects us from these harmful invaders; Skin; our skin is the first line of defense against pathogens. It is easier for germs to get into our body and cause an infection when there is a break in our skin.  The skin is the...
