Shine the Light on Woman Abuse Campaign Continues As 16 Days of Action Begin

Wawa remains wrapped in purple as a campaign in solidarity with abused women reaches an important period.

CHADWIC Home Program Supervisor Bonnie Ross explains the purple - which represents "courage, survival and honour", symbolizing the fight to end woman abuse - shows support for the "Shine the Light on Woman Abuse" campaign, which has a few goals.

Thanking everyone who's shown support, Ross reminds today is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, marking the start of the 16 Days of Action on Violence Against Women, which end on December 10th, which is Human Rights Day.
