What is Stop the Violence?
Stop The Violence is an long-running campaign of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, started by Sister Roma in 1989. It began in response to violence against LGBTQ people in San Francisco and elsewhere, with signs that were/are freely distributed to businesses and residences. When displayed, the signs alert people, at a glance, that that building is a safe space to come if ever needed. You can check out their FaceBook page for updates, information, and to find out how you can get involved. Go to FaceBook and Search: StopTheViolenceSF.
I noticed that Cliff's Hardware finally replaced their Stop The Violence window sign. It's about time! That other one was faded and barely visible. If you want one for your space check out The Sisters' FaceBook page.
