The annual Whitehorse International White Ribbon Breakfast recognises the great work happening in our community around family violence prevention.

Date: Friday 22 November 2019 at 7:30am - 9:00am  Location: Whitehorse Centre, 397 Whitehorse Rd, Nunawading Free Event, Bookings Essential

This free community event raises awareness of how to prevent family violence and violence against women in everyday life. 

The theme of this year’s breakfast is ‘Action today and everyday’ and focuses on how individuals as active bystanders can effect change, challenge attitudes and take safe and considered action to prevent violence in all forms.

An active bystander is someone who safely intervenes where disrespect and pro-violent attitudes are being expressed at work, home or in social situations. 

The event will be hosted by Whitehorse Mayor Councillor Sharon Ellis and guest speakers include Dr Peter Streker and a survivor advocate presenting “Anissa’s Story”. 

This event forms part of Council's 16 Days of Activism campaign which runs from 25 November to 10 December.

All are welcome to attend this event.
