Thank you, Chair.
Thanks to all the witnesses. Thanks for all the work you are doing for the most vulnerable in society.
My first question is for Ms. Niazi.
I want to take a moment to especially thank you for all the work you are doing in Scarborough and the catchment area of Scarborough. You offer many services to newcomers, but there are certain programs you have which are specifically focused for women. You also run some women-only classes. I understand that newcomer women have some specific needs, and they need some specific programming and support for them to be successful.
Could you discuss why it is important for newcomer women to be able to receive certain services in a women-only environment?
