Created in 1999 by a group of men in reaction to one man’s massacre of fourteen female college students in Montreal (specifically because they were women), White Ribbon Day is an annual day of recognition of the role men can play in stopping violence against women.

On March 15, 2023, A Safe Place will be working with local first responders and community members in taking the White Ribbon Day Pledge in making a commitment to be part of the solution in ending gender-based violence.

Taking the White Ribbon Day Pledge means not only promising to not be a perpetrator of violence against women but also promising not to be a silent bystander when you suspect someone is a victim or offender of sexual assault or domestic violence.
