We Stand With You

We are celebrating National Victims and Survivors of Crime Awareness Week by standing with Jesse and Gagan as they fight for justice, freedom, and equality. They want other survivors to know they are not alone. We stand with you, and we are here to help!

Faces of Courage: We Stand With You! is a tribute to the voices of all survivors of gender-based violence.The stories for this campaign speak to the power of collaboration. We hope that Gagan and Jessie’s voices will encourage survivors to come forward by letting them know that they are not alone.

Stand with Gagan and Jessie by sharing their videos with your family and friends!

Special thanks to Tugboat for their beautiful design, Perspective Studios for capturing our faces of courage, and to the Department of Justice Canada for making this project possible.
