White Ribbon Day is coming up. This is a day when men stand up and say that violence against women is NOT OKAY in our community.
I know that most men are do not commit violence against women. In fact it is only a small percentage of men that do...but....sometimes we just let it go when others commit this violence. No more
Some statistics;
80% of women in Australia have been coerced into sex they did not want
1 in 5 women in Australia will be a victim of violence before the age of 15
One in three Australian women have experienced
physical violence at some stage in her life since the age of 15
Intimate partner homicides account for
about 1 in 5 homicides nationally
SO>>>>>>>>
Come along to the White Ribbon Breakfast to be held at the Anchorage Hotel on Friday November 23rd to support the elimination of violence against women in Australia.
