Absolutely. Thank you.
One of the services we offer at Yellow Brick House is to provide them with free legal clinics. We have lawyers in our community who are committing their time to speak to the women and talk to them about their rights. We also connect with legal service organizations, such as legal aid and SALCO, the South Asian Legal Clinic of Ontario, to provide information.
It's increasingly difficult, however, because legal aid is really limited in terms of what they can access and whether they have any rights to access it. We're seeing a growing number of women who are coming to the shelter who don't have any status in Canada because an application has never been submitted, so they're starting from scratch, literally.
Those are some of the challenges they are facing right now.
