Purple Light Nights™ is the inspiration of the Covington Domestic Violence Task Force, King County , Washington .

The goal is to have all residents shine a purple light on every front porch; hang a string of purple lights in every business window; and decorate each downtown street tree with purple lights, to send the message thatDomestic Violence Has NO Place In Our Community”.  

The outcome of Purple Light Nights™ is to increase the awareness of domestic violence issues and it’s affect upon children and families.
