She Screams Without Sound is a candlelight vigil held each year in October during domestic violence awareness month to remember those who were murdered due to domestic violence. Now in its 37th year, the event is a collaboration between YWCA Greater Cincinnati, Women Helping Women, and other community organizations that come together to support families left behind by this senseless violence. The event features a choral selection from MUSE and remarks by local experts and family members. Candles are lit and names are read aloud to remember those that were murdered this year. The presentation is followed by a silent march around the courthouse accompanied by the Hamilton County Sherrif’s Office bagpiper.
This year’s event will be held on Tuesday, October 29th at 6:15 pm. Location is the front steps of the Hamilton County Courthouse located at 1000 Main Street, Cincinnati, OH 45202. This event is rain or shine. In case of inclement weather, the vigil will be held inside the courthouse.
