Mark your calendars for our largest and most important fundraiser of the year and prepare for an unforgettable evening amid dazzling lights, sound, and art to support the programs and services that save the lives of domestic violence victims and their children every day. With your help, we can eliminate domestic violence in our communities, our families, and our lives.

Each year, the Gala brings together more than 300 supporters from across the Chicagoland area to bring awareness, help stop the spread of domestic violence in our communities, and raise funds for vital programs and services for our most fragile families experiencing domestic violence. A Safe Place provides emergency shelter, affordable housing, court advocacy, community outreach, prevention education, and counseling in the wake of domestic violence. 

Your ticket represents you taking a very public stand against domestic violence.

This year marks our 9th annual Break the Silence... Unmask the Violence Gala and our 40th Anniversary. The Gala will be held at the beautifully re-designed Chicago Lincolnshire Marriott Resort.

Make a weekend of it! Discounted room rates available!

Please join us for this exciting evening, which includes fine food, wine, a spectacular silent and live auction, entertainment, and dancing.
