Through this 23-month project, La rue des Femmes in Montréal (LrdF) will expand its relational health intervention approach to strengthen the GBV sector. This project will allow for: 1) expanded access to support, through the establishment of strategic partnerships and collaborations strengthening a network of organizations in Montréal, making it easier for the women they support accessing relational care (both previously unhoused women who are now in permanent housing and women who are survivors of sexual exploitation); and 2) expansion into a new region (Nunavut) and among a new population (Inuit women). It will fill significant gaps in terms of support and access to specialized, responsive, trauma-informed relational care for underserved, isolated, hard-to-reach populations, as well as survivors of GBV with post-traumatic stress disorder. To this end, the project will include expanding relational care in Montréal and deploying the promising practice to partners in the form of training and clinical supervision. Expanding the promising practice to Nunavut through strategic collaborations with partners will make it possible to socially and culturally update and adapt the project, share knowledge and establish communities of practices. LrdF will produce promotional tools in French, English and Inuktitut as required to document or reproduce the project and to expand the promising practice.

Project activities include: (1) providing emergency shelter kits, non-food items and multi-purpose cash; (2) coordinating camp management, site care and maintenance; (3) deploying mobile teams to remote locations where affected populations lack water, sanitation and hygiene services; (4) providing health support, mental health and psychosocial support in humanitarian response; (5) providing emergency water, sanitation and hygiene; (6) providing support services for humanitarian organizations by establishing humanitarian hubs in deep field locations; (7) data collection, including mapping of vulnerable populations at points of entry and at the district and community level, to enhance targeting and delivery of humanitarian assistance; and (8) ensuring protection and gender mainstreaming across humanitarian response activities for extremely vulnerable individuals, including unaccompanied migrant children, single women, and adolescent girls.
