The cycle of violence helps to explain the pattern of abuse often seen in violent relationships. It also helps people to understand that breaking the cycle of violence is much more complicated than “just leaving” #domesticviolenceawareness #familyviolence #domesticviolence
Today is #NationalPhilanthropyDay⁠! We would like to send a tremendous thank you to all of our donors, volunteers and partners who help support our mission to end domestic violence in Calgary. We are stronger together in this journey and so grateful for your continued support.
Today we wear purple ribbons to mark the beginning of Family Violence Prevention Month. Family violence can happen to anyone - if you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, reach out for help. The Family Violence Info line is 24/7 at 310-1818. #wheretoturn #GoPurpleAB #yyc
