$399,588.00

Feb 3, 2021 - Mar 31, 2024

This 38-month project with Victim Services Toronto will develop and implement promising prevention practices to advance knowledge of school leaders and to enhance empowerment supports for at-risk youth population and survivors of human trafficking. This will be achieved by engaging key partners and stakeholders in a Human Trafficking Advisory Collaborative Committee, conducting human trafficking professional learning webinars, and developing and distributing a human trafficking tip sheet for school leaders. At the end of the project, the organization will have developed an effective and replicable human trafficking professional learning model for school leaders which can be implemented across Canada. The project will include an external evaluation that will look at the success and scalability of the promising practices.

Gender-Based Violence Program

The purpose of the GBV Program is to strengthen the GBV sector to address gaps in supports for two groups of survivors: 1) Indigenous women and their communities, and 2) underserved populations (including women living with a disability, non-status/refugee /immigrant women, LGBTQ2S, gender non-conforming people and ethno-cultural women) in Canada. The Program provides grant and contribution funding to Canadian organizations to improve supports to help create long-term, comprehensive solutions at the national, regional, and local levels.
