Our community room is filled with baskets and our hearts are filled with gratitude for Guelph-Wellington Basketeers and the incredible effort they put into supporting women transitioning from violence.
These baskets go a long way towards making a new place feel like home, and we're so thankful for the generosity and the motivation this group is able to inspire in people every year.
Thank-you for your commitment to changing people's lives for the better 💗

For the last decade, Wrapped in Courage has been growing awareness of gender-based violence across Ontario through purple scarves.
These scarves mean something different to everyone who wears them. Some wear a purple scarf during #womanabusepreventionmonth and the #16daysofactivism to #endgbv to show their support for local GBV services, while some are signaling to survivors that they are believed, valued and never alone.
This year during the 10th Anniversary of the #wrappedincourage campaign we are asking Ontario to reflect on why they wear their purple scarves, and what action they will take to address the rising femicide rates across Ontario. Because every life lost to #femicide is one life too many.
Contact us to get your purple scarf for the 16 Days of Activism!

Our annual December 6th candlelight vigil will be held this year at Marianne's Park at 6:30 p.m.
The event honours the 14 women killed during the Montreal Massacre in 1989 and all women who die by femicide every year. It's an opportunity to come together to mourn the women we lose each year to gender-based violence and to reflect on how we can make the world safer for women and girls.
We hope you'll join us.

Yesterday, the Federal, Provincial, Territorial (F

Yesterday, the Federal, Provincial, Territorial (FPT) Forum of Ministers responsible for the Status of Women announced their endorsement of a National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence.
The plan rests on a framework of five pillars: support for victims, survivors and their families; prevention; a responsive justice system; implementing Indigenous-led approaches; and social infrastructure and enabling environment.
Women and Gender Equality Canada reminds us that living a life "free from violence is a fundamental human right," and calls gender-based violence "one of the most pervasive, deadly, and deeply rooted human rights violations of our time."
"We know that gender-based violence is unacceptable and has no place in Canada," says the Honourable Marci Ien, Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth. "The National Action Plan to End Gender-based Violence gives us the roadmap to address the persistent gaps in care, support and front-line services – bringing us closer to building a safer and more equitable Canada for everyone.”

As Women's History Month draws to a close, we want

As Women's History Month draws to a close, we want to shout out another community champion making history with her incredible work.
Yesterday, Betty-Lou Clark received the 2022 Luella Logan Award for Outstanding Service by a Woman in Politics. A tireless supporter of women in our community, Betty-Lou has been involved with GW-Women in Crisis for many decades. She served on Eramosa Township Council from 1973-1974 and was Deputy Reeve from 1975-1976.
We thank Betty-Lou for her generosity, her drive, her persistence and her unwavering commitment to making life better for women who experience violence.
Congratulations, Betty-Lou! This award is so, so well deserved.

Breweries Breaking Barriers is returning this fall

Breweries Breaking Barriers is returning this fall for another series of virtual workshops targeting sexual violence in the brewing and beer-serving industries! Anyone can join the sessions, but the content will focus on the brewing and beer-serving industries.
With even more knowledge on the table, each session will leave you with ideas or skills that you don’t want to miss out on. Workplace violence is never part of the job. #NoOneAsksForIt
Our topics look different this time around, and so does our organizing team. Session and organizer information can be found on our poster, so be sure to check it out! Registration will launch in the next few days.
