What
Community College of Philadelphia’s Women’s Center and the Center for the Empowerment of Women are hosting a planning session to organize a local White Ribbon Campaign chapter. The WRC is an international organization that works with men to end violence against women and girls. The Toronto-based group was founded in Canada in 1991 by a handful of men. Its supporters, who now number in the tens of thousands in 55 countries around the world, wear a white ribbon to symbolize their opposition to violence against women. A representative from the Vermont WRC will be present to help strategize.
