Each year, Alberta shelters receive 52,300 calls from people experiencing domestic violence*.

Creating a future free of domestic violence will take a coordinated effort. The community has a part to play, and this event is an opportunity to support the front-line staff who are there to pick up the phone. Domestic violence shelters provide support to those who need it and programming to the abuser to break the cycle of abuse.
