A group of people are seen holding signs and protesting at night during a Take Back the Night event. One protester holds a sign that reads, "Respect my existence or expect my resistance." The scene is energetic, with a diverse group of individuals passionately voicing their message.

Take Back the Night

September 19 @ 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM EDT

The global movement known as “Take Back the Night” aims to bring an end to sexual violence, particularly against female identifying folks. The name honours the historic 1970s stand of those who first advocated for the essential right of women to walk alone at night without fear of being raped, harassed, or otherwise harmed.

Take Back the Night returns to Waterloo Region this year with activities and a march taking place at Gaukel Block in Downtown Kitchener. Join us and make your voice heard!

We’ll be meeting in front of the SLC at 5:00 pm (Tim Horton’s entrance) to travel to Gaukel Block together.

Our Services

WUSA recognizes that much of the work we do happens on the traditional territory of the neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. The land we work on is covered by the Between the Lakes Treaty, No. 3 (1792), and this region is still home to First Nation, Inuit, and Metis peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work, play and live on this land and acknowledge that it is our collective responsibility to make our community and world a better place for all people. We acknowledge that educational institutions have not been a safe space for Indigenous students in the past and we continue to work to ensure that this is no longer the case.

The work towards truth and reconciliation is ongoing, please do your part and take time to learn more: TRC 94 Calls to Action | MMIWG Calls to Justice Report | Native-Land.ca | Student Supports & Clubs
