Intimate partner violence has been particularly challenging for those navigating the pandemic with an abusive partner. Women Against Abuse has stayed on the front lines throughout COVID-19 because our work became even more important than ever! But we can't do it alone. We need your support.

Join Women Against Abuse for an evening featuring delicious food, unique experiences at the Linc, and the opportunity to hear from our inspiring 2022 Advocates of the Year - all while raising money for a crucial cause!



We're thrilled to be honoring the 2022 Advocates of the Year: Troy and Tommi Vincent!

Troy Vincent, Sr., - a NFL Pro Football Hall of Fame nominee and Philadelphia Eagles Hall of Fame inductee - is the Executive Vice President of Football Operations at the National Football League. Troy's wife, Tommi, is an in-demand chef, host of Stay A While Podcast and Stay A While Cooking Show, motivational speaker and writer. Having both been affected by domestic violence, Troy and Tommi are passionate advocates who frequently visit shelters, speak to advocacy groups, and encourage others to get involved in the movement to end domestic violence and sexual assault. Tommi also chairs the Board of Directors for the National Domestic Violence Hotline.


Many thanks to our donors and sponsors for this year's Dish It Up!
