Sexual Violence Prevention Month — formerly named Sexual Assault Awareness/Prevention Month — takes place annually in May.
Family Transition Place will be raising awareness with community flag-raising ceremonies, proclamations and other awareness initiatives.
The Town of Orangeville & Caledon will be recognizing this annual awareness-building initiative by raising a flag designed by an Indigenous design firm two years ago, in partnership with the Ontario Coalition of Rape Crisis Centres.
