This May, Pathfinders will host the Clothesline Project across the New England and Kempsey regions as part of Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month.
This powerful community event creates a safe and supportive space for victim-survivors, their families, and community members to come together, share stories, and stand in solidarity against gender-based violence.

The Clothesline Project invites participants to design t-shirts that reflect personal experiences, messages of hope, or support for others impacted by violence. These shirts are then displayed on a public clothesline, creating a powerful visual reminder that these voices can no longer remain silent.
Pathfinders’ Specialist Homelessness Services (SHS) and Family Connect and Support (FCS) teams will be there to support participants and ensure a safe, inclusive, and trauma-informed environment.
We welcome survivors, their loved ones, and community members to join us, to share and to stand together for safer communities.
