Why have we failed to respond effectively to intimate partner violence, a social problem that affects millions of women and children? And Sometimes They Kill You: Confronting the Epidemic of Intimate Partner Violence untangles what it is, the barriers to its eradication, and what we could be doing to eliminate those barriers.

After working for more than three decades with survivors, frontline workers, and the systems they turn to for help, lawyer Pamela Cross provides an in-depth look at intimate partner violence in Canada. Cross offers practical and hopeful ideas for how each of us can engage in the vital work of eradicating intimate partner violence. This is a call to action for the all-of-society, revolutionary response to gender-based violence needed to build communities that are safe and healthy for everyone.

Join us for an evening of discussion as we celebrate the release of Pamela’s new book.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase. $30, no HST payable by cash or e-transfer.
