On the Frontline 24/7
Video/Digital & Social Media
2021
2021 has been one of the most deadly years for women and girls. With social isolation and limited access to services, abusive partners have more power than ever. Technology is being misused to become another tool for abusive partners to exert control. Technology has also helped front line workers and volunteers respond requests for support through Crisis Lines, phone call, email, and text messages.
For Prevention of Violence Against Women Week April 11-17 2021, we created this PSA to raise awareness and share best practices for online safety.
Campaign Impact
Disabling read-receipts & location-sharing are 2 ways women can take back their power in abusive relationships.
