This is such a honour and I am so fortunate to be part of the not for profit sector. I have learned so much and am grateful for the many people who I have worked alongside over the years. My deepest appreciation!!
Thanks Brenda! Many survivors have incredibly complex stories. Their experience with sexual violence is often only one part of their story, and they can come from many different communities. Lets ensure they feel safe to come forward and get the support they deserve!
1/2. I spent my 20’s in the anti-violence movement. The voices of the survivors I worked with are never far from my thoughts. And like far too many of us have my own experiences with sexual violence. Today, we are making changes to support survivors.
Today is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Many seniors list “fear of crime” as one of their biggest concerns. #VPD has put together a list of security safety tips for seniors. ow.ly/jylG50OPz21 #WorldElderAbuseAwarenessDay
Many of us believe....this will never happen to me! Unfortunately, it can happen so easily....great information on how to be more aware!
