ANTI-VIOLENCE POSTERS UNVEILED

Released on February 10, 2000

A series of anti-violence posters was unveiled in Regina today.



With a theme of What Some People Do To Others is a Crime, the posters depict

senior abuse, bullying, the cycle of violence from one generation to another

and healthy versus unhealthy relationships.



"A recent omnibus poll shows us that the majority of Saskatchewan residents

consider violence within the family an important public issue," Minister

Responsible for the Status of Women Joanne Crofford said.



"Education and awareness are key to the prevention of violence. The Government

of Saskatchewan is committed to working with community groups like STOPS to

Violence to eliminate it in our communities."



"These posters promote the message that violence and abuse can be a criminal

offence, can take many forms and are everyone's responsibility to STOP," STOPS

to Violence Tasks Committee member Pauline Penn said.



STOPS to Violence is a partnership of more than 50 community-based

organizations and government departments working together to promote healthy

relationships and ending violence and abuse.



The Saskatchewan Women's Secretariat provided funding to produce the posters.
