AbbyPD launching Purple Lights Nights campaign today

ABBOTSFORD — Communities across the Fraser Valley are continuing to mark Intimate Partner Violence Awareness Month this October as Abbotsford kicks off its own Purple Lights Nights campaign today (Oct. 3).

The launch is set for 10 a.m. at the Abbotsford Farmers Market in Jubilee Park, with AbbyPD’s Victim Services Unit providing resources and directing people to services while survivors or service providers share their lived experiences with attendees.

“As part of this Intimate Partner Violence Awareness Month, AbbyPD Headquarters will be illuminated in purple each night, standing as a visible reminder of our collective commitment to prevention, education, support for survivors, and an end to abuse,” said AbbyPD.

“Together, AbbyPD, community partners, stakeholders, and supporters will stand united to raise awareness, foster meaningful dialogue, and help break the cycle of intimate partner violence.”
