We are a centre that provides resources and support for our clients. We collaborate and partner with various other shelters that are here for women in Sudbury. The prevention element is having support staff there to be able to provide support for the women coming in. Due to COVID, we have to make sure we have a client coming in and working with our staff one on one, and there are some people who aren't coming in for a week or so. By having extra support staff, we could help out in those types of elements.
Some of the prevention elements would be working in collaboration with other organizations in our community and on an evaluation type of piece. If we could get some research done, that would be able to help for the future.
