Expanding The Reach: To Address Violence Against Women with Disabilities

Scarborough Women’s Centre
Scarborough, Ontario

This program addresses gender-based violence experienced by women with visible and invisible disabilities in several key ways. It offers women with disabilities the opportunity increase their awareness of disability and gender-based violence, and to develop leadership skills. It will also develop training opportunities and resources that build service providers’ capacity to become more inclusive in offering services for women with disabilities who have experienced or are at risk of experiencing violence.
