 This November 28th we're going orange in support of the 16 days of activism against gender-based violence campaign, which starts November 25th and runs through December 10th. City Hall and other iconic sites across the city are lighting up to raise awareness. New Yorkers join us and wear orange to support survivors of gender-based violence. Gender-based violence is abuse that exploits unequal power relationships between genders. It can happen anywhere in our city and to anyone. It takes many forms, whether it be verbal, physical or mental. This is a public safety issue that impacts us all. To those who suffer gender-based violence, I want you to know you are not alone. The city is fighting to end gender-based violence in every borough. We are committed to preventing and eliminating all forms of violence against all people. Every New Yorker deserves safe spaces and healthy lives. Find out ways you can help at nyc.gov slash 16 days. Together we will continue to build a city where we are safe in our homes, workplace and communities.
