Violence Prevention East is one of ten Regional Coordinating Committees under the Provincial Violence Prevention Initiative.

We are a non-profit, volunteer committee, made up of individuals from both government and community, that meets regularly in the Clarenville-Bonavista area of Newfoundland to discuss issues relating to violence.

Violence Prevention East encourages a community approach to violence prevention. The committee brings together government departments and community groups to find ways to improve services for victims of violence and to raise awareness about issues of violence in our communities. We believes that we all share responsibility in violence prevention.

Violence Prevention East is proud to support the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-based Violence, also known as the Purple Ribbon Campaign.
