STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

"One in three women may suffer from abuse and violence in her lifetime. This is an appalling human rights violation, yet it remains one of the invisible and under-recognized pandemics of our time.”

--Nicole Kidman








"Every woman who thinks she is the only victim of violence has to know that there are many more."

-- Salma Hayek



"Remember no one can make you feel inferior without your consent."

--Eleanor Roosevelt



"If the numbers we see in domestic violence were applied to terrorism or gang violence, the entire country would be up in arms, and it would be the lead story on the news every night."

-- Rep. Mark Green



"No woman has to be a victim of physical abuse. Women have to feel like they are not alone."

-- Salma Hayek



"It's not enough for women to speak out on the issue - for the message to be strong and consistent, women's voices must be backed up by men's."

--Rep. John Conyers, Jr., Michigan



"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

--Margaret Mead
