FACTS ABOUT VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

OBTAINED FROM THE CANADIAN WOMEN’S FOUNDATION

WHAT CAUSES VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN?

In our society, gender inequality is visible in many areas, including politics, religion, media, cultural

norms, and the workplace. Both men and women receive many messages—both blatant and covert—that

men are more important than women. This fundamental inequality creates a rationale for humiliation,

intimidation, control, abuse, and even murder.

In this context, it becomes easier for a man to believe that he has the right to be in charge and to control

a woman, even if it requires violence. This is not only wrong, it’s against the law.

Violence against women is rooted in the belief that women deserve less social power and it is therefore

acceptable – maybe even necessary – to exert power over them. This mindset also drives many other

forms of violence, such as racism, homophobia, classism, ageism, and religious persecution.

There is no evidence that alcohol or mental illness causes men to be violent against women. Men who

assault their partners rarely assault their friends, neighbours, bosses, or strangers. In fact, when it comes

to alcohol, there is a clear double standard: while alcohol consumption by an offender is often used to

excuse their behaviour, victims who have been drinking are often blamed for their own victimization.

WHO IS MOST AT RISK?

Violence against women happens in all cultures and religions, in all ethnic and racial communities, at

every age, and in every income group.

However, some women are especially at risk:

Aboriginal women (First Nations, Inuit and Métis) are more than eight times more likely to be killed

by their intimate partner than non-Aboriginal women. Aboriginal women are 3.5 times more likely to

be victims of violence compared to non-Aboriginal women.

According to both police-reported and self-reported data, younger women are at a much higher risk of

violent victimization. 66% of all female victims of sexual assault are under the age of twenty-four (11%

are under the age of eleven). The rates of violent crime against women aged 15 to 24 is 42% higher

than rates for women aged 25 to 34, and nearly double than the rates for women aged 35 to 44. Women

aged 15 to 24 are killed at nearly three times the rate for all female victims of domestic homicide.

60% of women with a disability experience some form of violence According to the DisAbled Wom-

en’s Network of Canada, women with disabilities experience the same types of violence as other women

in addition to other forms related to their disability, including: increased difficulty leaving an abuser due

to mobility or communication issues, higher rates of emotional abuse, being prevented from using a nec-

essary assistive device (wheelchair, cane, respirator, etc.), and abuse by institutional caregivers and/or

other residents

Many racialized women face barriers to reporting incidents of physical or sexual assault or seeking help.

“A study with young women of colour in Toronto found that one-in-five experienced racism in the

health care system which included cultural insensitivity, racial slurs, and poor quality care.”

Aanii/Boozhoo Aamjiwinaang

I am happy to be working in the community once

again, it has been eight years and 5 months. My

return is in the role of the Community Health Rep,

which is an entirely different type of work than in

the past and I totally look forward to serving the

community. Since my departure to my role at Step-

ping Stones many things have changed in the com-

munity and I hope to contribute in a positive way. I

have had many people ask me, “What does the

CHR do?” and my answer was/is; to provide

Health promotion and prevention services and en-

suring community has access to medical/health pro-

grams is the short answer. As it turns out there is so

much more and I hope to get the community in-

volved in all that I try to accomplish in the next six

months. It is my intention to provide activities for

all community members to build strength, get fit,

eat healthy, stress management and to utilize the

resources which we have in the community. I will

be doing a short survey to see what types of fitness

program the community members are interested in

participating in and how I can best serve the com-

munity.

Please feel free to contact me at the Health Center I

would love to come visit and talk about you.

Kristal Nahmabin, CHR

Aanii Aamjiwnaang,

The Drinking Water Monitoring Program is part

of the CHR responsibilities. I will be conducting

water sampling each week throughout the com-

munity buildings and homes in the community.

The Drinking Water Monitoring Program will

consist of testing for chlorine residual and

bacteria, such as E.Coli.

If you are interested in having your home drink-

ing water source tested, please contact me at the

Health Centre at 519-332-6770.

Respectfully,

Kristal Nahmabin, CHR

On behalf of the E’Maawizidijig Heritage and Culture Club I would like

to take this time to thank everyone involved in the sponsorship of our

recent first Annual Artfest.

It was a huge success, many families were brought together at this

event, participating in displays, socializing, painting something at Crock A Doodle , enjoy-

ing face painting, or taking pictures at the photo shoot.

To see the elders and children participating at Crock- A- Doodle was such an amazing sight

to see. Personally it was one of my life’s goals realized that day.

If you missed it no worries, as we are planning to have them back in the future.
