Our conversation begins here.Memphis police respond to more than 40 domestic-violence calls each day. In fact, more than half of all violent crime in Memphis is classified as domestic violence. Local statistics hover around one reported case of forcible rape each day, but experts suggest that the numbers could be much higher for unreported sexual assaults.And the problem is communitywide. To highlight that fact, we created a series of PSAs that will run on local TV stations and can be shared across social channels. These join the national spots created by the Joyful Heart Foundation in partnership with NO MORE. Local StoriesListen.

Roughly half contained forensic evidence that had not been seen by a laboratory.Nearly five years later, all of those kits had been inventoried and examined and were either tested or in labs awaiting testing. Still underway — the long years of work to use those kits to convict rapists and make our communities safer.Memphis Says NO MOREis one of dozens of state and locally led coalitions championing the NO MORE movement in their communities.Learn more about the national NO MORE campaign.Join the movement to end domestic violence and sexual assault.Take the Pledge Local group offers resources, advocacy for women facing domestic violence Originally posted by FOX13Memphis.com News Staff.
