ActionDignity’s Gender Equity Peer and Natural Support Training is Recruiting Participants

- The negative effects of Gender-based Violence(GBV) can have long-lasting and negative health, social and economic effects that span generations.
- GBV is not limited to physical violence and can include any word, action, or attempt to degrade, control, humiliate, intimidate, coerce, deprive, threaten, or harm another person.
- Women in Canada are more likely than men to experience intimate partner violence (IPV). 44% of women reported experiencing some form of IPV in their lifetime (since the age of 15).
