The Centre for Injury Prevention is excited to welcome you to another episode of YOUTH VOICES, a special series of Injury is NOT Equal.

**The views, information, or opinions expressed during Injury Is NOT Equal(including Youth Voices) are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre or its host.**

DISCLAIMER: A warning to our listeners this episode contains conversations of gender based discrimination and violence and intimate partner abuse.

LISTENERS’ DISCRETION IS ADVISED!

This episode Youth Voices - Chapter 2. A Vicious Cycle: Exploring Violence at Home was researched, reordered and produced by: Katelyn, Sydney and Shania.

These 3 young individuals speak candidly about the effects of domestic abuse on children and teens. They discuss protective factors, various coping mechanisms that are employed by those witnessing and or are victims of domestic abuse. They also explore heightened vulnerabilities during the pandemic and the increase of domestic abuse and intimate partner violence. They get the record straight that “boys will be boys” is never a justifiable reason and we as a society  must denounce and de-normalize these toxic gender based beliefs to truly break the cycle of domestic violence and prevent future injuries from occurring.

Call to action:
Domestic violence can become a viscous cycle and is extremely dangerous for victims and those who witness it. To break the viscous cycle all measures need to be taken to spreading awareness and de-normalize the actions and views of domestic violence.

If you, or anyone you know is /or has experienced violence there is always time to seek assistance and support from community organizations please see resources below: 

If you are in immediate DANGER or fear for your safety, please CALL 911.
