Yesterday, we joined the Walk to End Violence Against Women as part of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. 🧡
In Australia, 1 in 4 women have experienced violence, emotional abuse, or economic abuse by a cohabitating partner since the age of 15.
This is not just a statistic - it represents women and girls in our families, workplaces, and communities, reminding us how urgent this work is.
A heartfelt thank you to the event organisers, and to the many community members and organisations who came together to take a stand. 💪
At the Launceston Medicare Mental Health Centre, we are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space for victim-survivors of violence. You are welcome here, and you are not alone.
