Time to step up. Be ready to prevent violence against women.
This is the theme of the Advisory Council on the Status of Women’s Purple 
Ribbon Campaign for 2018-19. The ACSW is extending its bystander theme with a message for everyone to be prepared and take responsibility. Everyone can have a positive role and help to eliminate violence against women. While every gender experiences and perpetrates violence, women continue to be disproportionately victimized.
Over 17,000 purple ribbons and bookmarks will be distributed in communities across PEI beginning in November and into the spring of 2019. The Status of Women counts on volunteers to pin the ribbons to cards in preparation for distribution. Pick up a shoebox package and step up and end violence against women.
