Flags raised to combat gender based violence

Will fly until 16 Days of Activism concludes

Victim Services of Leeds and Grenville attended the Domestic Abuse Awareness Flag raising at Brockville Police and in Municipality of North Grenville late last week. 

Similar ceremonies took place in North Grenville and Gananoque too. 

It marked the beginning of 16 Days of Activism Against Gender based Violence, which are now underway. 

Interval House says the flags will remain raised until the end of the 16 days to show solidarity in standing up against violence and supporting survivors in our communities.
