In honor of today’s national day of awareness for “Hospitals Against Violence,” the DFW Hospital Council (DFWHC) Board of Directors stood for a photograph to display unity with hospitals across the U.S.

The campaign was the brainchild of the American Hospital Association (AHA) with a goal to focus national attention on ending all forms of violence through digital media to include tweets, photos and other online efforts.

“Today we welcome health providers, community organizations, clergy, law enforcement, clinics and other volunteer organizations to participate,” said W. Stephen Love, president/CEO of DFWHC.

DFWHC shared its photo online at http://www.aha.org/advocacy-issues/violence/join.shtml.

Photos and messages can also be shared on social media at #HAVhope.
