About the event
Brought to you by the Soroptimist clubs of Oak Harbor, Coupeville, and South Whidbey.
Stopping violence against women isn't just a "women's issue"—it takes men, along with women, stepping up to change the culture.
From November 25 to December 10, the global 16 Days of Activism campaign is focusing on a problem that lives right in our phones and on our laptops: online abuse. Things like cyber-stalking, harassment, and sharing private photos cause serious, real-world harm.
Here are 5 clear ways you can step up, hold others accountable, and make the internet safer.
1. Stop the Spread of Private Photos
The Problem: Sharing intimate pictures without permission (often called "revenge porn") ruins lives.
