"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:
The Witney’s Lights Youth Ambassador Program is one of our signature programs.
In our quest to be part of the solution instead of part of the problem; we have designed a program like
none other, that is committed to training and developing ambassador s who will receive Domestic
Violence Awareness and life skill training and tools that will prepare them to serve as effective leaders in
their community. It is our belief that once we begin to educate our youth and train them as leaders that
they will model success within their communities and encourage healthy and safe relationships.
Witney’s Lights 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.
