Interim Place is mobilizing our community to ensure that everyone is aware of the issue of violence against women and has an opportunity to help us work to end violence in women’s lives. For the seventh year, Interim Place is participating in OAITH’s Wrapped in Courage Campaign which will continue throughout the month of November, Women Abuse Awareness Month. This campaign invites all Ontarians to show their support by purchasing purple scarves from local participating women’s shelters.
“Violence against women impacts us all. We encourage our community members to envision a future without violence and to work with us to bring this vision to fruition. Let us continue to make a difference in the lives of women and their children impacted by violence together.” -Sharon Floyd, Executive Director, Interim Place. Violence against women continues to be one of the most significant human rights violations affecting women and girls in our community. Eight women and two children were murdered in Peel Region in the first ten months of 2019. Nationwide, a woman or girl is killed every 2.5 days. Interim Place continues to play a vital role for survivors of violence through the delivery of our programs and services. If women and their children cannot access Interim Place’s shelter or programs, they cannot get their chance at freedom. It is imperative that we work together as a community to ensure that organizations such as Interim Place continue to have the resources required to provide services to the women and their children who need them. Support Interim Place so women and their children always have a safe place to go when they are facing violence. Purchase a purple scarf from Interim Place and wear it this winter to show your support. Every scarf counts when it comes to the safety and well-being of Peel Region’s women and children. To purchase your scarf contact Julie Shultz, Development Manager, at development@interimplace.com or 905-403-9691 ext. 2223. Past Events and Campaigns!Our Funders
