Strong Community Partnerships

Self sufficiency and wellness are the cornerstones of a free and fulfilled life, and something that everyone deserves. We support women, trans, non-binary and Two-Spirit people to make healthy choices and pursue opportunities that will have a significant impact on their ability to move forward along their journey towards self-sufficiency and wellness.

Description of the UVIC Bursary

We have developed many strong community partnerships and we make referrals to other existing educational programs in the community including Bridges, Community Micro Lending and the Burnside Gorge Family Self Sufficiency Program. This way we ensure that we are meeting the needs of our program participants and filling gaps rather than duplicating existing programs.
