Elizabeth Fry Society - Calgary - Indigenous Cultural Supports

The Elizabeth Fry Society of Calgary is a leader in working with the Indigenous community. We offer resources unique to Indigenous women, who represent nearly 50% of the women engaged with the Elizabeth Fry Societys Prison Community Outreach Program in mid-2019.

We believe that Indigenous women are more likely to heal when they have access to a culturally safe environment with traditional, spiritual support.

A number of EFry clients have language or cultural barriers that make it difficult to comprehend the legal processes. This impedes their ability to address their charges and achieve the best possible outcomes. EFry fills a gap in a complex system by assisting with understanding legal forms, filing processes and referrals to legal resources.

Elizabeth Fry engages Indigenous women in case management supports, programs and ceremony designed to increase their cultural identity, address intergenerational trauma, and encourage healing.
