Published purpose

This 60-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow the organization to continue providing shelter and services to women and children affected by Gender Based Violence (GBV). Organizational capacity will be enhanced through the following activities: 1) updating the Strategic Plan to increase board and staff capacity; 2) incorporate new IT and communication tools, including developing a Communications Plan; and 3) hire a consultant to lead the team through a strategic planning session. The 2023 supplemental funding will be used to build stronger relationships, and increase collaboration, with the five Indigenous communities where CHADWIC Home offers services by: 1) assessing the organization’s level of cultural safety; 2) increasing the organization’s cultural competence; and 3) increasing staff and organization’s capacity for providing culturally safe services.
