Though the program provides a range of different services and supports, including women-only employment, language support and child care, what is particularly important is the women-targeted mentoring and the social connections. They really create that sense of community and enable women to gain exposure and sponsorship in finding employment and other social connections. There is also a dimension that provides some gender-based violence support for families, which is really important for traumatized women.
It's quite an all-encompassing program that we're really quite proud of.
