Shine the Light on Women Abuse
November is Woman Abuse Prevention Month in Ontario. The campaign calls for community agencies, businesses, and citizens to individually and collectively work toward turning their city purple during the month of November to raise awareness on woman abuse. Hiatus House honours survivors during the month of November as a way to inspire other victims to reach out for help, and for the community to respond. As a part of the Shine the Light campaign, Hiatus House hosts a number of events and will be selling purple scarves, ties, scrunchies, and candles to increase awareness.
