CCC&Y Spotlight — Speakers share their words, experiences at “Voices Unheard: Breaking the Silence” community gathering in Flagstaff

Oct 28, 2025

FLAGSTAFF — While October’s National Domestic Violence Awareness Month is quickly coming to a close, that doesn’t mean the issue should be put behind us for another year.

Speakers at the “Voices Unheard: Breaking the Silence” — A community gathering for prevention, strength and healing, made it clear that domestic violence, stalking and human trafficking are all ongoing issues that must be addressed year round by community leaders, law enforcement and others. 

Sponsored by the Coconino Coalition for Children & Youth, Coconino County, the City of Flagstaff and CF Productions, LLC., the event featured a number of speakers who shared their personal stories of facing abuse and how they overcame those challenges.

“It was remarkable the way the community came together to support this series of events. Being able to bring speakers with such a wide array of experience and working knowledge together while seeing so many community members arrive both in support and to learn was truly special,” said Virginia Watahomigie, executive director of the Coalition.
