We are urgently reaching out to seek your support in protecting racialized women from economic injustice.
We believe in the power of collective action. We are dedicated to addressing Economic Abuse, and we need your support to make a meaningful impact.
Why Sign Our Petition?
Your Voice Matters: Every signature is a powerful statement. The current surge in inflation, which is driving up the cost of living, in conjunction with a shortage of affordable housing options, rising food prices, and overstretched social assistance programs, has continued to trap victims of domestic Economic Abuse in a cycle of abuse. Systemic barriers, including discrimination based on factors such as race, religion, and sexual orientation, impose formidable obstacles on women when it comes to the justice system, housing, banking, and employment. These systemic challenges often become overwhelming, particularly for underserved women, compelling them to return to their abusers.
Together, we can create a chorus of voices that demand change.
Raise Awareness: The more signatures we gather, the louder our call becomes. Your support helps us reach a broader audience and sheds light on the importance of our cause.
Influence Decision-Makers: Signatures are more than just names; they represent a community of individuals passionate about Economic Abuse. Your support allows us to engage with decision-makers and advocate for change.
Did you know that Over the past four years, we have dedicated ourselves to advocating for the recognition of November 26 as Economic Abuse Awareness Day in over 100 cities, 10 provinces, and 3 territories?
It is fulfilling to see that this day has gained recognition not only in Canada but also in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Israel. We are profoundly grateful for the support we have received from local and provincial governments in response to our call for action.
Now, the time has come for the House of Commons to officially declare November 26th, the National Economic Abuse Awareness Day.
Why Is National Economic Abuse Awareness Day important?
The National Economic Abuse Awareness Day presents an opportunity for a collective effort, bringing together victims, survivors, advocates, financial institutions, law enforcement, supporters, and political leaders in our shared mission to eradicate domestic Economic Abuse. We acknowledge the influence that each of us holds in creating a positive impact on someone.
