On October 16, 2025, let's turn Prescott-Russell purple with purpose!

As part of Ontario Dress Purple Day, Valoris is joining forces with our amazing community to raise awareness about every child and youth’s right to safety, well-being, and a life free from harm.

This powerful day is more than just a splash of color — it's a call to action. It’s about standing together to protect the rights of our children and youth, and reminding them that they are seen, supported, and never alone. It's also a celebration of the compassionate community we’ve built — one that cares deeply for children and families across Ontario.

Let’s break the silence. Let’s speak up. Let’s show our kids that help is here — right in Prescott-Russell.
