Description (French)
Grâce à ce projet de 30 mois, Interval House of Hamilton amplifiera le programme de MentorAction afin de renforcer le secteur de la VFS. Il traitera les lacunes en matière de formation sur la prévention de la violence fondée sur le sexe dans le secteur des métiers spécialisés à prédominance masculine partout en Ontario. Pour ce faire, le projet comprendra une formation sur la prévention de la VFS dans les lieux de travail et établira des réseaux de formation au sein des syndicats de compétences et de métiers en Ontario. Interval House of Hamilton rédigera des blogues et des articles qui seront publiés dans les bulletins d’information des entreprises et des syndicats participants pour informer les autres sur la pratique prometteuse afin de leur permettre de la reproduire ou le développer.
Le financement supplémentaire servira à permettre à Interval House of Hamilton, en partenariat avec la Campagne du ruban blanc, de développer une nouvelle application et une page Web de soutien intégrant la sensibilisation à la prévention de la violence aux discussions sur la santé et la sécurité au travail dans le secteur des métiers spécialisés à prédominance masculine, afin de renforcer les normes de respect et de responsabilisation. Le projet comprendra aussi une évaluation externe afin d’évaluer les retombées des pratiques prometteuses.
Expected Results
Promising practices are incorporated by the GBV sector into new or enhanced supports for target populations.

Program Purpose
The purpose of the GBV Program is to strengthen the GBV sector to address gaps in supports for two groups of survivors: 1) Indigenous women and their communities, and 2) underserved populations (including women living with a disability, non-status/refugee /immigrant women, LGBTQ2S, gender non-conforming people and ethno-cultural women) in Canada. The Program provides grant and contribution funding to Canadian organizations to improve supports to help create long-term, comprehensive solutions at the national, regional, and local levels.
Program Purpose (French)
Le Programme de financement de la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe (le Programme) vise à renforcer la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe (VFS) et, en particulier, à remédier au manque de soutien pour deux catégories de survivantes et survivants, soit : 1) les femmes autochtones et leurs communautés; et 2) les populations sous-desservies au Canada (notamment les femmes handicapées, les femmes réfugiées, immigrantes ou en situation irrégulière, les personnes allosexuelles et les femmes des minorités ethnoculturelles). Il s’agit d’un programme de subventions et contributions pour les organismes canadiens qui mènent des projets visant à améliorer les mesures d’aide offertes et à créer des solutions durables et complètes à l’échelle nationale, régionale et locale.
