On Sunday, June 4th, 2017 will you join us to stand tall, together, against domestic violence?
Stand Tall…Nova Vita Domestic Violence Prevention Services is excited to announce our 7th annual Heels to Heal Walk in support of the over 750 women, men, non-binary individuals and children we serve every year. Join us on Sunday, June 4th, 2017 in Brantford’s Harmony Square, and stand tall in your red heels or your red shoes against domestic violence. This is our largest event of the year, both in raising awareness and in financial support. This year we hope to raise $50,000, and register 150 walkers in honour of Canada’s birthday.
Did You Know…Domestic violence is a serious epidemic in our community. Brantford is currently ranked 2nd in Ontario and 8th in all of Canada for police reported incidents of domestic violence. We at Nova Vita, see every day how exposure to domestic violence impacts individuals and families, and we work diligently to provide safe shelter, crisis support, individual and group counselling to everyone in our community. But we can’t do it alone. We need your help! Last year alone, we had 281 women and children live at Nova Vita, 12 women and children who lived in our transitional home, 205 women who accessed our transitional support workers, 269 women in the community who received individual counselling, and 28 children who were exposed to domestic violence, receive counselling through our child-witness program.
