🌟 Reflecting on a Powerful Day of Unity: 16 Days in WA Campaign 🌟
Today, I had the honour of standing shoulder to shoulder with our community at the rally and march as part of this year's 16 Days in WA campaign. The resilience and strength displayed by everyone, especially the lived survivors and families who bravely shared their stories, left a lasting impact on me.
The theme for this year's campaign, "Play Your Part," resonates deeply with me. As I reflect on the powerful words of LeVar Burton, "In a society that functions optimally, those who can should naturally want to provide for those who can’t. That’s how it’s designed to work. I truly believe we’re here to take care of one another," I feel a profound sense of responsibility.
These are the people I want to work for—the children who no longer have mothers, and the families torn apart by violence. The stories shared today have ignited a passion within me to contribute meaningfully to the well-being of our community. It's a reminder that each of us plays a crucial role in creating a society where support and care are the cornerstones.
Let's take these powerful moments and turn them into actionable change. Together, we can make a difference. Let's amplify the voices of the unheard and work towards a safer, more compassionate future for all.
