Let Our Voice Run focuses on taking a proactive approach on addressing abusive behaviours experienced by young adults in Institutes of Higher Learning (IHL).
Relationship violence can happen to anyone.
It is everybody's business to dialogue and build shared concern about the issue.
About Relationship Violence
Relationship violence involves the intentional use of force or power, threatened or actual, against other persons by an individual or small group of individuals.
Acts of relationship violence (which can be physical, sexual, or psychological/emotional) can happen between intimate partners or among individuals who are not related by family ties but who may know each other. It includes harassment, bullying, assault, sexual violence by acquaintances or strangers.

Collaborate with stakeholders of IHLs to journey together to build a safe campus community through restorative initiatives.
Help us to sustain our work.
​
Your donation and support will allow LOVR to continue to provide free workshops and services for students in IHLs, such as community building circles, listening circles for students affected by relationship violence.
​​
Your contributions will enable LCCS to continue empowering individuals through restorative practices. Donors will also be eligible for a 250% tax deduction with a minimum $10 donation.
Reflections from
LOVR members
"LOVR made me know more about myself, and opened up a lot of opportunities for me to improve. It initially seemed to me that my goal is to learn how to better help others, but what I didn't expect was how much I benefited from having a space to share about topics and perspectives that I have never even shared with my family or loved ones."
Yong Sheng
"The engagement gave me the opportunity to reflect on the experiences of various stakeholders in the case of sexual harm, as well as to learn from other participants. It has also opened my eyes to restorative approaches for the first time and challenged my existing perspectives and thoughts. It was a fruitful and unique conversation that I could be a part of!"
