Tree dedication delivers powerful message "In honor of our mothers, our daughters, our sisters - stop woman abuse now." A small plaque to be placed in the Goderich Court House Park packs a powerful message. The plaque, to be unveiled in the public ceremony on Friday, August 6th at 12:30 p.m., dedicates a • com- memorative tree . that has been placed by SWAN - Stop Woman Abuse Now. This Huron County committee of more than 40 professionals represents a full range of health care, police, educational and children's services, who are working toward the reduction, prevention and eventual elimination of all forms of woman abuse. SWAN will hold a public gathering on August 6 to dedicate the tree and plaque,. There will be guest speakers and music. SWAN members believe that the tree will serve as a daily reminder about the reality of violence toward women and the ongoing com- mitment to change. In Canada most violence takes place at home and is committed by someone known to the victim. Wife battering has becomea national epidemic with somewhere between 2.5 million and 6.25 million women assaulted by men they once loved.

People used to think it affected only lower socio- economic classes. This assumption can make it difficult for a middle class woman, who has had no experience with violence. She finds. it very difficult to getout, because she is ashamed to admit it and she is bewildered by this unfamiliar and terrifying behavior. SWAN invites everyone to take part in the.
