Sexual Health Options, Resources & Education Centre (SHORE Centre)

Published purpose

This 58-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow the SHORE Centre to continue promoting social and systemic change towards gender equality. Organizational capacity will be enhanced through the development of a partnership and network strategy as well as comprehensive strategic planning. This project will lay the foundation for SHORE Centre to effectively grow its network and expand its support to a greater number of women, trans and non-binary people across Ontario. The organization received supplemental funding during the Covid-19 pandemic for an anti-racism audit, as well as the shift to an electronic client management database for increased internal efficiency and analytics. The supplemental funding received during 2023 will permit the organization to integrate key learnings from the anti-racism audit into their organizational structure, share expertise with partner organizations, and revise their strategic planning process to be rooted in an anti-racist and anti-oppressive framework.
