The area in which we see some promise and/or hope in terms of helping families who have challenges and/or struggles is a lot of the work that we do with family resource centres, with women's resource centres, and also with parent-child centres that you would have in communities and/or in schools, where you would begin to build some relationships with women and try to get some support and services to them that would be community based and not necessarily mandated services.
In Manitoba, we fund a variety of different community-based organizations like Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata, Andrews Street, and the Wolseley Centre, where we have the opportunity for women--and for men, in some of them--to come forward to get some services and supports and to start to build a bit of a community of support for themselves. So that would be an introduction or a beginning.
But it's certainly a challenge, because when we do look at children, it's the safety of children that does come first. If in fact we're going to be looking at some success factors around our new initiative around prevention and family enhancement, it would certainly be to look at ways in which the family can stay intact, so that if there's an offender in the family, the female doesn't get victimized or punished because of that.
