Who we are
About White Ribbon USA
The White Ribbon movement began in Canada in 1991 with a direct request to men: speak out against violence against women.
White Ribbon USA carries that commitment into American communities through public pledges, prevention education, advocacy, and partnerships.
Founded 2018 / 501(c)(3) / Los Angeles & New York
Our mission
Preventing domestic violence, sexual assault, and harassment.
White Ribbon USA works to prevent domestic violence, sexual assault, and harassment by giving men and communities clear standards for action: refuse abuse, challenge excuses, support people who are harmed, and speak up before violence escalates.
How the work is done
Education
Teach warning signs and practical bystander skills for schools, workplaces, veteran communities, and civic groups.
Public commitment
Invite individuals and organizations to make the White Ribbon pledge and carry it into daily decisions.
Advocacy
Use public events, film, partnerships, and campaign materials to make prevention visible in public life.
