Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. No matter where violence against women happens, what form it takes, and whom it impacts, it must be stopped. Join us during the #16days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. #IDEVAW#YWCAactivism
On #MissingPersonsAwarenessDay, we must support and honour those affected by #MMIWG. You are not forgotten and we will continue to send our prayers and love to all those effected. We stand together as #SistersInSpirit who are strong and resilient.
We must invest in gender equity to address the needs of girls and unlock their full potential! At YWCA, we empower girls to achieve their dreams. To have an inclusive society, we must remove barriers and support girls to be successful in all facets of society! #DayOfTheGirl
People in your life might be disclosing about the sexual violence that they were subjected to in high school for the first time this week. Being prepared is one way you can be an ally to survivors. You don't have to have all the answer, what you need to do is be BRAVE.
If you have any feedback at all on this year's Walk a Mile changes compared to previous years or would just like to make a comment, feel free to message us on Facebook or Twitter! Thank you so much again for making this event happen!
I'd like to extend a big thank you on behalf of the YWCA to everyone who attended, pledged, supported, and donated to our Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event! We hope we created a memorable learning experience for everyone who came and took part.
October 4th is a day for honoring missing and murdered women and girls, and though YWCA Thompson isn't hosting a spirit vigil (https://t.co/pnZs1mGXEr) , we'd like to continue to bring the Faceless Doll Project, created by NWAC as well, to the community of Thompson in the future.
We honour the missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls. YWCA staff and volunteers are taking part in vigils and actions across the country today. Visit https://t.co/zEh1MeWycR to see if there is one happening in your community.
