We are happy that sexual violence & consent education has become a topic for discussion and included in the platforms of various parties. Make sure to ask the candidates in your riding what they will do to make sure we’re combatting sexual violence in our province #ableg

So to recap: Stop calling public servants ideologs and before you call to scrap the curriculum- READ IT. Read the evidence that shows it works. Listen to folks like me who know it works. We can’t ignore these issues in our curriculum and go back to where we were #ABleg

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

Yes! This is a very important point. If you see something, say something. It’s also why it’s important to support bystander intervention initiatives.

[Carol Fenton @DrCarolFenton]

But also can we talk about how "Laura"'s friends didn't intervene when they noticed this guy wanted to sleep with her and thought his behaviour was unusual? It's still entirely the perp's fault, but important conversations to have...!

Danielle Aubrey of Calgary @calgarycasa says, “It's very critical for people to be empowered into making their own decisions.” she couldn’t be more right. The Third Option needs to become a legislated option across Alberta. #ableg #yyc #yeg

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

The Third Option is a program where sexual assault victims/survivors can have a rape kit stored for up to a year while they decide whether or not they’d like to file a formal report with police. #ableg #yyc #yeg https://t.co/uIUTpTqraM

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

Our justice system is messy and pursuing legal action against a perpetrator can be a great emotional feat for many. The Third Option gives victims/survivors the time to make the choice as to whether or not they want to go down that path. #ableg #yyc

Thank you for your leadership every day supporting survivors and for this statement and reflecting the need to put self-care above all. Easy to say and hard to do. You are a hero @ShelKenn #ABLeg

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

Thank you for your advocacy, @ShelKenn. Your work has made incredible strides in ending child sexual abuse in Alberta and Canada. We can’t thank you enough.

[Power & Politics @PnPCBC]

.@RonaAmbrose says it upsetting that her bill to require sexual assault law training for judges is stalled in the Senate. "It's sort of shocking, because I think when was the last time that someone said further education and further training was a bad thing." #cdnpoli

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

This is a form of sexual assault. What happened to these male students at a #yyc high school is horrendous. Schools should be teaching about consent, not violating it. https://t.co/sMOQ0Aoky6

Today is the beginning of Family Violence Prevention Month in Alberta.
A month devoted to empowering the voices of survivors and to continuing the commitment to end family violence in our province #reachoutspeakout #Ableg

[Jonathan Teghtmeyer 🇺🇦 @atypicalalbertn]

I stand with Jessica.
I believe her.
This is not her fault.
She did nothing to deserve this.
She is so courageous.

[Hon. Rona Ambrose Veitch @RonaAmbrose]

Thank you for your advocacy, @KristinRaworth ! Many positive steps are being made, but there is still much more we need to do. We need to keep the momentum going!

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

Substance use is not a valid excuse for impaired driving. It should not be an excuse for sexual assault. @C_Mulroney, this is not right. #onpoli https://t.co/u6oCO6jDCx

[Right2Know @Right2KnowAB]

This is a good move from the government. https://t.co/Pg38xWal3h
