Moving Forward Family Services

Published purpose

Through this 33 -month systemic change project, Moving Forward Family Services will help advance representation in leadership and decision-making roles for Black, Indigenous, People of Colour (BIPOC) through systemic change. Specifically, the project will address systemic barriers such as the lack of capacity in small to medium-sized public sector organizations to recruit, retain and promote BIPOC women in(to) leadership positions and limited mentorship opportunities for BIPOC women by collaborating with BIPOC women and public sector leaders to understand experiences and identify harmful systems, developing and implementing workshops and mentoring sessions for stakeholder groups and co-creating strategies for policy improvements. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the systemic change project.
