Voices of Women: Stories of Survivors
The Ottawa Coalition to End Violence Against Women will be having their 1st annual event that is focused on the stories of women who have survived partner or sexual violence.
Voices of Women: Stories of Survivors
October 2, 2012
6:00-7:00pm
Minto Park
The hope is that there will be 5-7 women willing to share their stories in a public event.
If you are interested in sharing your life experience we encourage you to read the following attachment and submit your narrative to ed@octevaw-cocvff.ca. OCTEVAW asks that each narrative be no longer than 2 pages or 3-5 minutes.
They also know that not all women will feel comfortable reading their own narrative and therefore OCTEVAW have organized for professional storytellers as an option for women. They will also have individuals available to assist in writing narratives. If you are interested in assistance with writing a narrative or/and having it read by storytellers at the event then please submit your request/narrative by September 7, 2012.
OCTEVAW would like to thank all women for submitting their narratives and having the courage to break the silence.
