About this service
The Skills Exchange Program supports womens mental well-being by allowing them to share their experiences of violence, without shame or guilt. In addition, this program develops and strengthens coping skills to help women deal with past and present trauma. During group sessions, women share their skills, knowledge and life experiences. Discussion topics can include: healthy sexuality, healthy relationships, employment, education, financial literacy, assertive communication, and parenting in trauma. These topics are framed within a feminist, anti-racist, and anti-oppressive framework. This foundation of shared experience breaks a womans sense of isolation, helps build self-esteem and enables her to become self-empowered.
