Summary
Through this 60-month project, Victoria Native Friendship Centre (VNFC) will increase its ability to address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people. This will be achieved by conducting a needs assessment and building networks and partnerships to develop and implement a data management system. An evaluation will be conducted to measure the performance of VNFC’s programs and services.
This project will work collaboratively with Ursa Creative and the University of Victoria to develop, build, train, and implement a data system that will best fit the needs of clients, staff, and the organization.
By the end of the project, VNFC will have strengthened their capacity to address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people, because they will collect a more comprehensive data with a focus on urban Indigenous peoples.
With the Supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, Victoria Native Friendship Centre (VNFC) will increase its ability to address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people through designing, building, implementing, and supporting expansion of the Warriors’ data management system to their Youth department. By the end of the project, VNFC will have further strengthened their capacity to address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people. Through this they will further advance gender equality.

Description (French)
Grâce à ce projet de 60 mois, le Victoria Native Friendship Centre (VNFC) augmentera sa capacité à lutter contre la violence fondée sur le sexe envers les femmes, les filles ou les personnes 2ELGBTQQIA+ autochtones. Pour ce faire, l’organisme procédera à une évaluation des besoins, et établira des réseaux et des partenariats pour élaborer et mettre en œuvre un système de gestion des données. Une évaluation sera effectuée pour mesurer le rendement des programmes et services du VNFC.
Dans le cadre de ce projet, l’organisme travaillera en collaboration avec l’organisme Ursa Creative et l’Université de Victoria pour concevoir, construire et mettre en œuvre un système de données qui répondra le mieux aux besoins des clients, du personnel et de l’organisation, ainsi que pour offrir de la formation sur le système.
D’ici la fin du projet, le VNFC aura renforcé sa capacité de lutter contre la VFS envers les femmes, les filles ou les personnes 2ELGBTQQIA+ autochtones, parce qu’il recueillera des données plus exhaustives axées sur les peuples autochtones en milieu urbain.
Grâce aux fonds supplémentaires et à la prolongation accordés au début de 2026, le Centre d’amitié autochtone de Victoria (Victoria Native Friendship Centre ou VNFC) renforcera sa capacité à prévenir et à contrer la violence fondée sur le sexe (VFS) visant les femmes, les filles et les personnes 2ELGBTQQIA+ autochtones en concevant, développant, mettant en œuvre et appuyant l’expansion du système de gestion des données Warriors au sein de son service jeunesse. Au terme du projet, le VNFC Centre aura davantage renforcé sa capacité à prévenir et à contrer la violence fondée sur le sexe (VFS) visant les femmes, les filles et les personnes 2ELGBTQQIA+ autochtones. Ces travaux contribueront à faire progresser davantage l’égalité des genres.
