Upskilling for Equity: Community- and Women-Led Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Training Services

Through this social enterprise project, diverse women – particularly those from marginalized communities – will receive training to facilitate workshops on equity, diversity and inclusion for non-profits, municipalities and businesses. As facilitators, the women will have the opportunity to bring their lived experiences into the workshops, while developing new and transferrable job skills. Revenue from these workshops will supplement Upskilling for Equity training programs for women who are living on a low-income and facing multiple barriers to employment.

Grant amount: $50,000
