Published purpose

This 60-month project will develop, implement and test a community-based and culturally-relevant advocacy model based on response-based practice to support, respond and restore dignity and safety of Indigenous GBV survivors in northern and remote Kaska communities in Yukon and Northern British Columbia. The organization will engage GBV survivor advocates to raise awareness on related issues in their communities and offer peer support and referrals to other GBV survivors in order to improve their access to appropriate response and support services.
