The project empowers at-risk individuals and communities through trauma-informed education and outreach on Red Flag laws to improve safety and access to legal protections.

The project is designed to raise awareness, educate, and empower at-risk individuals and service providers about Red Flag laws and other protection and safety tools. It aims to align with the initiative's objectives by enhancing knowledge and understanding of these critical safety measures. This includes providing actionable information, fostering a supportive community atmosphere, and ensuring community groups are well informed and equipped to utilize these protections effectively.

This project builds on the existing “See It, Name It, Change It” initiative—a community education campaign originally developed by Lanark County Interval House and Community Support to increase awareness of the warning signs of Intimate Partner Violence and promote safe, informed intervention in rural communities. With support from Lanark County Interval House and Community Support, Ottawa Victim Services has adapted and urbanized the campaign for Ottawa’s diverse, densely populated environment. This project seeks to further adopt this shared program to integrate education about Canada’s new Red Flag laws into the campaign to expand public knowledge, reach high-risk populations, and prevent firearm-related harm before it occurs.

The purpose of this contribution is to provide funding to this local Jewish community organization to enhance their security.
