Reproductive rights are women’s rights.Women’s rights are human rights.The right to choose is an essential protection as we move towards structural gender equity. In the words of #RuthBaderGinsburg “Abortion prohibition by the state…denies them full autonomy and full equality"

Women often go to great lengths to “get home safely”, but home is not a safe place for everyone. When home isn’t safe, VAW shelters across Ontario are there to provide support.

We are wearing orange today in recognition of Canada's legacy of colonial violence and the impacts of this violence in the present day lived realities of the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island.

It was the story of Phyllis Webstad, who was striped of her orange shirt when she attended residential school, that inspired #OrangeShirtDay.
