The 14th Annual White Ribbon Day in Cleveland is Friday December 6th, the 35th Anniversary of the Montreal Massacre, the event that led to the founding of the global White Ribbon Campaign. Please join us in taking a public stand against gender-based violence that day.
The campaign may be observed on other days in Ohio and around the globe during the 16 days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, between November 25th (International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women) and December 10th (Human Rights Day)
Click here to join the 2024 White Ribbon Campaign as a partner organization and organize your group, organization or family to take a public stand against gender-based violence. People of all genders and ages are invited to participate in the White Ribbon Campaign.
The Healthy Fathering Collaborative extends a specific appeal to fathers to promote and role model nonviolence and respect for others in their families, neighborhoods and communities.

The 19th Annual Fathers Walk was held Thursday September 19, 2024 for schools and early childhood programs throughout Cuyahoga County and across the State of Ohio.
Fathers and other male mentors were encouraged to take children they care for to school on this date and throughout the school year! Please support the thousands of fathers, uncles, grandfathers, stepfathers, foster fathers, brothers and mentors that step up to support the education of children in their lives.
We distributed 30,000 promotional cards to nearly 100 schools across the County. Students took the cards home to invite fathers and significant males in their lives to the walk and ask them to take the Fathers Walk pledge!
