Women's Enterprise Skills Training of Windsor Inc.

Published purpose

This 46-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow Women's Enterprise Skills Training of Windsor Inc. (WEST) to continue promoting social and systemic change towards gender equality. Organizational capacity will be enhanced utilizing technology to strengthen organizational infrastructure and processes and enhance program delivery, as well as building the technical capacity of staff in managing these new platforms. This will be achieved through a transition to a computer-based case management system, along with the creation of an enhanced communications strategy and language training to improve overall accessibility, and with the development of recreational opportunities for newcomer children to use technology when learning through play. The supplementary funds will be used for completing the organizational case management system and staffing to assist in the transition to online services while ensuring staff are properly trained to use all the features of the organizational case management system.
