FY 2021-22 · 2021-10-15
Summary
This 29-month project will consist of developing and implementing an approach that will identify and consolidate access to French-language and culturally appropriate services for women and girls experiencing violence in British Columbia to address the root causes of gender-based violence. Société Inform’Elles Society will achieve this goal by identifying gaps in services or resources to serve Francophone women who have experienced gender-based violence by establishing two key partnerships with organizations in anti-violence sectors to develop and enhance their services for Francophone women. In addition, Inform’Elles will promote these new avenues by engaging the French-speaking community and sharing the lessons learned from the project through regional and national networking.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to removing systemic barriers by promoting inclusive policies and practices, fostering more efficient and equitable sharing of resources, and increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 29 mois permettra d’élaborer et de mettre en œuvre une approche qui identifiera et consolidera l’accès à des services en français et culturellement appropriées pour les femmes et filles en situation de violence en Colombie Britannique pour remédier aux causes profondes de la violence fondée sur le sexe. Société Inform’Elles Society atteindra cet objectif en identifiant les lacunes en services ou en ressources pour servir les femmes francophones ayant subis la violence fondée sur le sexe, en établissant deux partenariats clés avec les organismes des secteurs anti-violence pour développer et renforcer leurs services pour les femmes francophones; de plus Inform’Elles va promouvoir ces nouveaux parcours en engageant la communauté francophone et en partageant les apprentissages du projet à travers des réseautages régionaux et nationaux.
À la fin du projet, l’organisme aura contribué à l’élimination d’obstacles systémiques en promouvant des politiques et pratiques inclusives, en favorisant un partage plus efficace et équitable des ressources, et en accroissant les réseaux et la collaboration pour accélérer le changement systémique.

Programme de financement de la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe
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.
