Article Information
| Background | Hollaback! Ottawa produced a report based on an open forum we held and the results of a survey we conducted on levels and types of street harassment in Ottawa. |
| Reason | CFRA interviewed us as a continuation of their focus on levels of harassment on public transit. |
| Comment | Although the title is a tad cringe worthy, it was great to see a focus on the sexual violence continuum. |
| Outcome | It's important to get the word out about our work and in particular, the framing of sexual violence. The more we hear 'cat calls' referred to as street harassment, the better. We need to shift the narrative. |
