David Ekizian and John Lawler
Community Leader Award Recipients

In 1999, David and John donated their time and talent to design a pioneering public health ad campaign for GMDVP. The resulting “He Loves Me Not” campaign was an overwhelming success, acclaimed in both the local and national press. More importantly, the campaign struck a powerful emotional cord with the Massachusetts gay community, particularly those who were victims of domestic violence. It is due to David and John’s work on this campaign and two follow up campaigns that thousands of victims of domestic violence have been able to come forward for help, that mainstream service providers no longer ignore the needs of gay male victims and that GMDVP has become a local and nationally recognized leader in service provision, advocacy and education for gay victims/survivors of domestic violence.
