Reach Beyond Domestic Violence and the Women’s Committee
of the Boston Carpenters Union partnered yesterday to create 70
new silhouettes for a traveling exhibit that promotes domestic-violence
awareness.
“The events demonstrate the power of collaboration and the
possibility for prevention,” said Toni K. Troop, director
of communications for Jane Doe, Reach’s parent organization.
The exhibit, the Silent Witness Project, features free-standing,
life-size red wooden silhouettes that represent individual women,
men and children who have been victims of domestic violence in Massachusetts.
Reach holds the Silent Witness Project for Massachusetts and loans
the exhibit out statewide.
