"Everybody can be great because anyone can serve"
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Witney's Lights is named after the late Dr. Witney Holland Rose a University of Maryland Psychiatrist
who was murdered in 2003 by her ex-boyfriend. Witney’s Lights is a grassroots non-profit
organization committed to eliminating domestic violence through awareness, education, prevention,
advocacy, and a commitment to advancing the initiatives laid out in the landmark, Violence Against
Women Act of 1994. Some of our activities will include:
Witney’s L.I.G.H.T.S., (Leadership Institute for Guiding and Helping Tomorrow's Servant
leaders) is a youth education program committed to training and empowering youth leaders within
troubled communities. Students will be invited to participate in the Leadership Institute based upon their
sincere desire to become educated about the violence that plagues their environment and their
commitment to make a difference by giving back to their community. As a fellow of Witney's
L.I.G.H.T.S; students will receive Domestic Violence Awareness and life skill training that will prepare
them to serve as effective leaders in their community. The Leadership Institute will be staffed with
highly qualified instructors who are experts in the fields of leadership, education, medicine, social
services and community resources. Students will be exposed to both traditional classroom settings as
well as diverse cultural experiences.
The Witney’s Light Initiative will develop collaborative relationships with law enforcement,
regional Shelters and Mental health professionals to assist victims and their families transitioning out of
abusive relationships. We will conduct workshops, victim advocacy, and will recognize citizens and
survivors who have committed to ending domestic violence.
Witney’s Lights will sponsor a domestic violence awareness walk to promote unity and
commitment to ending domestic violence.
Witney’s Lights will produce and distribute a wide array of multimedia products focused on
awareness and prevention of domestic violence.
Witney’s Lights will establish the Dr. Witney H Rose Memorial Scholarship. This generous
scholarship will be given annually to a student that exemplifies the characteristics of Dr. Witney H.
Rose. Recipients will be a person that is hard-working, committed to making a difference in their
community, has a desire to explore a career in medical science, and will continue to carry the light of
service that was once carried by Dr. Rose.
Witney’s Lights will work collaboratively with local agencies, hotels and community outreach
programs to provide temporary safe shelter for victims of domestic violence.
