The goals of the campaign are to make the unacceptability of violence against women a topic that can be openly discussed in our province,promote understanding of the issue of violence against women, and encourage all members of the public to become involved in efforts to prevent violence against women at the community level. The purple ribbon campaign shares many of the same goals and messages as the Respect Women Campaign(www.respectwomen.ca)
