This undated poster was created for the B.C./Yukon Society of Transition Houses and funded by the Ministry of Labour, Women’s Programs. It addresses domestic violence and  was produced to raise awareness and connect women experiencing abuse with support services provided by the B.C./Yukon Society of Transition Houses.. The bold red background features the message “Women can’t be beaten,” accompanied by an illustration of a woman and two children seated beside packed suitcases in front of a house, suggesting leaving an abusive environment.

The text emphasizes that abuse can be physical, emotional, or verbal, and encourages viewers to seek help. It reflects broader feminist anti-violence organizing and public education efforts in Canada.
