This month is National Domestic Violence Prevention Month and the Women’s Resource Center’s Colleen Arnold says they have displays with information boards and ribbons all over Flin Flon and Creighton.  She says they ask people to show their support and awareness of this campaign by wearing a purple ribbon.  She adds on November 25th they will be holding Take Back the Night and it’s held on that date as it marks the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women and the first day of the 16 days of activism against gender violence.

Arnold notes they have submitted stories to the Reminder and will hold presentations in the schools.
