June 8-22, 2008 - 2nd Annual White Ribbon Campaign

LEVI is kicking off our 2nd Annual White Ribbon Campaign, June 8 - June 22, 2008. The campaign focuses on men working to end violence against women. We will consider this successful when men rally together to end domestic violence and sexual violence. Historically, these issues have been relegated as just “women’s issues”. Men in our community are needed to step up if we are to have any additional affect on reducing domestic violence in Longmont.

If you are concerned about violence against women in the Longmont community and want to get involved, please click here to learn more about the White Ribbon Campaign.
