November marks Woman Abuse Prevention Month and the official launch of the Annual Wrapped in Courage campaign organized by the Ontario Association of Interval & Transition Houses. Gender-based violence (GBV) agencies across Ontario are asking community members to wear a purple scarf to show their support for survivors of GBV within their community.

Actions, which prioritize and safeguard choice, offer life-changing pathways to safety for women, survivors, and their children.
