The city’s administration building and three of the city’s water towers at Underwood, Shailer Park and Hillcrest will turn purple and orange next month.
The lights, which will be on from May 13-16 and May 19-25, recognise Domestic and Family Violence Prevention Month (DFVPM).
A community candle-lighting ceremony will also be hosted by Not Now, Not Ever in Logan reference group from 5.30pm to 6.30pm on Wednesday, May 4, at the Logan Entertainment Centre forecourt.
The ceremony will remember those who have lost their lives through domestic and family violence while also supporting those affected by it.
Councillor Laurie Koranski said the ceremony would bring the community together to deliver a resounding message: ‘Not Now, Not Ever in Logan’.
Cr Koranski said council and the community are working together to increase awareness about domestic and family violence and what can be done to prevent it.
Council has committed to addressing domestic and family violence in its City of Logan Safe City Strategy and Action Plan 2021-2025.
“We are turning words into actions and lending our support to address an issue which sadly affects so many lives,” Cr Koranski said.
Community members are invited to take part in the candlelight ceremony and no registrations are necessary.
