Staying Safe

Safety means different things to different women. We all want to feel safe, or safer, and free from physical danger or threat of danger, free from violence or threat of violence and free from harassment or threat of harassment. Safety can be present or absent in the company of those in our lives, such as our immediate family, our partner/spouse, our children, other members of our family. Safety can be present or absent in our workplace, in our neighbourhoods and in our community.
