Hello,
It's that time again where we feature the community agency of the week that promotes the empowerment of women. This week, the agency is The Well-Come Centre for Human Potential . This social service agency provides an emergency homeless shelter for women, while acknowledging that battling patriarchy is a starting point to fighting for their clients. Please visit their website for more details on their programs and the work that they do!
Also, The Well-Come Centre for Human Potential is holding an event on April 15, 2011 to celebrate local female artists and raise awareness on the issue of homeless women in our community. Please contact the agency for more information.
This blog is designed as a safe place for both western women and women from third world countries to discuss the different issues that affect them in an area free from harassment. This blog began with the idea that oppression and feminist activism of women from the Middle East, and women who live in North America, has remained silent in our society, through academia and as a global issue.
