A Day in the Life of Canada’s Shelters for Women Survivors of Abuse

“In celebration of International Women’s Day, the Canadian Network of Women’s  Shelter and Transitional Houses released SHELTER VOICES which brings to us the voices of women survivors and their children and the voices of the front line shelter workers who are all incredible agents of change within their communities.”  International Women’s Day is meant for acknowledging the achievements, contributions and struggles of women all over the world.  It is a tribute to women, a time to reflect on progress made, to celebrate women’s acts of courage and determination and to continue to fight for justice and equity. This year, we invite you to reflect and share with us an achievement from the past year that  gives women and girls the most reason to celebrate. Nellies wishes you a Safe and Happy International Women’s Day.
