WHEN a group of UK-based Trini business owners and entertainers saw reporting on recent events of violence against women and girls back home in TT, they decided they had to do something.
The group of advocates joined together to form the group Faith In Our Destiny to support the growing movement to call for action to protect the country’s women.
“Trinbagonian women are being raped, sexually assaulted, abused, and murdered at alarming rates with not enough being done to stop it! It is evident the country is facing a gender-based violence crisis,” the group said in a statement.
