Description:

Through this 20-month project, Survivor's Hope Crisis Centre (SHCC) will build its capacity to advance gender equality. It will address the organization’s policies, procedures and funding practices. The project will include developing and revising policies and bylaws to align with GBA+ and applicable legislation and acts on Indigenous, queer, and people with disabilities needs. To do so, the organization will establish and advisory committee and will focus on the intersections of survivors of sexualized violence as well as making recommendations and informing of gaps by conducting needs assessment to aid them in continuing healing and equality. The activities will also equip the organization to secure sustainable funding through staff trainings and build network and improve partnerships with individuals, groups and agencies that share an interest in advancing equality for women, sexual violence survivors, and gender diverse individuals. By the end of the project SHCC will have created policies and procedures that are anti-oppressive, inclusive, and decolonized and will have obtained the tools and knowledge to help build their organizational credibility and financial capacity.
