Gabby Petito's father encouraged people to speak out about domestic violence in a tribute to his late daughter on Monday.
Joseph Petito posted a photo of Gabby walking on the boardwalk holding two young boys' hands, with the caption: 'We have to do better. Changes are coming. Now is the time. Don't be silent.'
It was hashtagged #domesticviolence and #domesticviolenceawareness.
The post comes just a few days after he tweeted that people have reached out to him to share that they have been inspired by her his daughter's tragic death to make preparations before leaving their abusive relationships.
'She is already saving lives,' he posted on Saturday. 'So many stories being sent to us about relationships being left with proper planning for safety, and people are being found due to her influence. We have much more work to do, but it's a start.'

Gabby Petito, 22, took off for a cross-country trip with her fiancée Brian Laundrie, 23 in a Ford Transit van over the summer, sharing their experiences on Instagram with the hashtag #VanLife. The posts abruptly stopped in late August, and on September 1, Laundrie returned to his North Port, Florida home in the van without Petito.
Her parents reported her missing 10 days later, and on September 19, her remains were found at a campsite where she stayed with Laundrie in late August.
Her death was later ruled a homicide.
Laundrie's parents, meanwhile, reported him missing on September 17, saying the last time they saw him was on September 14, when he said he was going for a walk at the nearby Carlton Reserve, a 25,000-acre nature reserve.
He is now described as a 'person of interest' in the case and is charged with using a debit card fraudulently for allegedly using a bank card that is not his without permission and retrieving more than $1,000.
As the search went on, disturbing bodycam footage emerged showing police being called to an incident involving the young couple in Moab, Utah, on August 12 - 13 days before Petito was last heard from.
In the video, an emotional Petito is seen with tears streaming down her face telling officers the couple 'have been fighting all morning' and admitting that she slapped him while Laundrie is seen with scratches on his face and arm.
When an officer asks Petito if her boyfriend hit her, she replies 'I guess' and makes a grabbing motion on her chin. Laundrie admits he 'pushed her' during the altercation but the cops determine Petito was 'the primary aggressor.'
He claimed she was 'really worked up' and he was 'just trying to push her away.'
Police initially pulled the couple after a man called 911 to report a domestic abuse incident involving the two.

In the aftermath, multiple people tweeted to Joseph that Gabby's death gave them the courage to leave their abusive relationships.
'I'm not sure if you'll ever read this, but after your daughter's case became public I found the courage to leave my narcissistic and abusive relationship. She truly is saving lives continuously sending my love and prayers to you all. I'm sorry nobody was there to save her,' one person tweeted.
'I found the strength I needed after 10 long years...realizing this could have been me. GOD NEEDED GABBY IN HEAVEN MORE THAN WE DID ON EARTH,' another person shared.
Someone else tweeted: 'Gabby inspired me to 'take that trip' with my kids that I was so nervous about last week. We had a blast! Her legacy will last forever. x'
'I'm writing to you from faraway part of Middle East, Iran. I just a left a very damaging relationship recently because of Gabby. Sending your family lots of love and I'm sure Gabby's watching over those who need help. She's a true angel,' another person tweeted.
Since the video was released, many people have been reaching out to Joseph Petito to tell him that Gabby's experience inspired them to get out of abusive relationships
New details have also emerged in recent days about Petito's last days, including that her family called the police in North Port, Florida, to file a missing persons report one day before she was officially reported missing and officers showed up at Brian Laundrie's home.
Police records, obtained by WFLA, reveal Petito's family contacted the North Port Police Department and attempted to report her missing on September 10.
But the family were told that, due to state law and the police department's policy, they must file the report in the place of her last known location.
Partially-redacted call logs seen by DailyMail.com show two 911 calls were made that day to North Port police in connection to the Laundrie family home where Laundrie, 23, and Petito, 22, lived with his parents before their doomed cross-country trip.
Both calls were classed as 'public service' calls, with the first made just before 4pm and the second around 6.30pm.
It is not clear if these were the same calls made by Petito's family, but both were given the brief description of 'problem settled'.
The following day - September 11 - Petito's family succeeded in reporting her missing in her native state New York, kicking off the huge search for the 22-year-old.
It was also revealed that Laundrie's sister saw her brother twice between the time he returned to Florida without
