In 2021, I had the great honour of supporting @THANS_NS @SpiderVideo and @Podstarterio to shine a light on the lack of awareness that exists around domestic violence. This is a good time to amplify these stories shared directly from survivors in NS. thans.ca/somebody-must-…

Today is the annual "Wear Purple Day" in honour of Family Violence Prevention Week in Nova Scotia. If you can, please join us in wearing purple today to raise awareness and show support for all people who have been impacted by family violence. #FVPW2024 #ItStartsAtHome
Join us February 11th to 17th in recognizing Family Violence Prevention Week across Nova Scotia! 💜💜💜💜 Every year, during the week of Valentine’s Day, we gather to recognize that Family Violence has far-reaching effects. #ItStartsAtHome #FVPW2024 #WearPurple
On February 11, we celebrate 211 Day to continue to raise awareness of 211 services in Nova Scotia. As part of our celebrations, landmarks across the province will glow red in honor of 211 Day. 211NS is free, confidential information and referral service available to all.
Due to the storm, some NSLA Offices are closed or will have delayed opening. If you have court, contact your lawyer and/or the court to see if your matter is going ahead. Contact your NSLA Office to ensure it is open before attempting to attend at the office for an appointment.
Violence affects women at every stage of their lives. More than 1 in 3 women experience gender-based violence during their lifetime. What steps can you take to end gender-based violence in your community? #PreventGBV #EndVAW
"Historic' single-year spike in N.S. child poverty with 20.5% of kids in Nova Scotia experiencing poverty in 2021." #NsPoli #EndPoverty cbc.ca/news/canada/no…
Just released: 2023 Report Card on Child and Family Poverty in Nova Scotia. The child poverty rate in NS increased 11.4%, the highest single-year increase since 1989. #NsPoli #CanPoli policyalternatives.ca/2023NSreportca…
Achieving gender equality means eradicating all forms of discrimination against women and girls and removing barriers that prevent women from fully realizing their rights and freedom. #PreventGBV #EndVAW
Today marks the beginning of Black History Month. 🖤 THANS recognizes that Black history is our present. Colonialism, racism and sexism remain very real issues that Black communities fight against every day. We support survivors of every race, class, and identity.
Femicide is rooted in patriarchy through the promotion of harmful norms and beliefs about masculinity that assert male control and power and discourages 'unacceptable' women's behaviours through violence. Ending femicide requires challenging & dismantling patriarchal systems.
Join us online in one week for the release of 2023 Child and Family Report Card. Register in advance
Leaving is a dangerous time for those living with violence. Having a plan can make it safer and easier. For support in making a safety plan, contact your local transition house or anti-violence organization: thans.ca/our-shelters-2/ To access "Making Changes", see our LinkTree.

Members of Government came together at Province House, yesterday to mark the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women and honour the memory of the 14 women who lost their lives at Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal on Dec. 6, 1989.
On the eve of #Dec6 National Day of Remembrance and Action on #MVAWG & #Femicide, I feel deep fatigue, impatience & rage. How many more women & girls need to be killed before we have REAL action instead of platitudes, moments of silence, & prayers. How many? #MontrealMassacre

“We need a paradigm shift in our society to fight violence against women.” 🇨🇦 Ambassador Lulashnyk and 🇲🇽@EmbaMexAua Amb. @ljcampuzano joined the global book launch of the @routledgebooks on #Femicide & #Feminicide yesterday at @univienna. (1/2)
In a patriarchy-free world, we can build an egalitarian society where everyone values and respects themselves and others, and also supports each other. Incidence of gender-based violence is reduced and we can all have equal chances at a better life, regardless of our gender.
