This 27-month project will support a feminist response and recovery to address the current impacts of COVID-19 through systemic change. To achieve this, Passages : ressources pour jeunes femmes en difficultés plans to (1) consult with women experiencing homelessness in Montréal and the people working with them to identify their needs, (2) develop a status report on service gaps within the various housing resources for at-risk women, and on their unmet multisectoral needs, (3) engage frontline multisectoral actors and future professionals who will serve vulnerable women with regard to the specificity of women’s homelessness, and make them aware of the importance of an intersectional analysis of homelessness measures in Montréal to ensure they are inclusive, and (4) consolidate a network of resources related to housing for at-risk women in Montréal and ensure its sustainability within the Partenariat pour la lutte et la prévention à l'itinérance des femmes de Montréal [Montréal partnership to combat and prevent women’s homelessness].

By the end of the project, the organization will have helped eliminate systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practices, encouraging more effective and equitable sharing of resources, increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, and supporting a positive distribution of authority, voices, and decision-making power in support of women’s equality.

In addition, the organization will draw on the diverse field expertise of four housing resources for at-risk women (La Maison Marguerite, Auberge Madeleine, Les Maisons de l’Ancre and La rue des Femmes) to collaboratively develop concrete and structuring solutions to women’s homelessness that will ensure the voice of vulnerable women in Montréal is heard. This approach will include raising awareness of gender-based analysis plus (GBA Plus) applied to homelessness to ensure recognition of the specificity of women’s homelessness by the people responsible for considering and developing continuums of service in the Montréal region for women experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing it

This 27 months project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. Canadian Parks and Recreation Association (CPRA) will achieve this by scaling up its current training by delivering webinars in four critical areas to community base professionals and practitioners, by building an online community of practice, implementing initiatives, as well as designing and hosting an interactive toolkit.

Supplement for activities includes two additional in-person workshops, targeted follow-up sessions with up to ten organizations and/or communities that are in the process of addressing gender equity practices, enhanced modules on safe sport and intersectionality, and storytelling to strive for gender-equitable programming and facilities.

At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practices and increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change. CPRA will support positive distribution of authority, voices, and decision-making power, while addressing persistent harmful gender norms and attitudes to support women’s equality.

CPRA indicated systemic gender inequities and harmful sector norms which preclude girls and women from participating in physical activity. These barriers can be entrenched in the physical spaces and places that recreation and sport take place, and in the norms and attitudes that exist in these places and spaces. To address these, CPRA proposes a feminist recovery response to build community capacity, in applying a gender lens to recreation, sport places and spaces by providing both knowledge dissemination and mentorship amongst the sector. CPRA will work with several partners, as well as their 13 members from the parks and recreation associations across the country, to enhance leadership opportunities for women and girls.

This 21-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic through systemic change. VIDEA will achieve this by implementing a baseline data using Indigenous methodologies; creating and implementing strength-based Indigenous community processes and action plans; creating new partnerships and carrying out capacity building activities; producing communication materials and resources; and implementing strategic systems-level interventions that increase the capacity of institutions to expand the reach, impact and sustainability of gender equality efforts in Indigenous communities.

At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practice and addressing persistent harmful gender norms and attitudes to support women’s equality.
