Here For All Women

When we use the term ‘women,’ we refer to all individuals who identify as women. This includes women of colour, transgender women, and women with gender-diverse identities (as we know that gender is fluid and can change throughout one’s lifetime). These women have historically and systemically been excluded from many mainstream programs, services, and opportunities.

We’re making a concerted effort to prioritize equity, access and inclusion in everything we do. Our goal is to ensure that anyone who accesses our program truly feels welcome and supported.
