Our Current Projects
The Circle of Women
The Circle of Women project is a two-year program aimed at reducing and addressing gender-based violence by focusing on the unique challenges newcomer women face. These challenges include finding work, family issues, safety concerns, building social connections, legal problems, managing money, navigating their communities and mental health.
Enabling Accesibility
The Enabling Accessibility Project is a two-year program based in HRM, focused on assessing the needs of racialized, im/migrant women with disabilities, who may be experiencing Gender Based Violence (GBV).
New Roots
Four community based organizations IMWAH, THANS , Atlantic Muslim Resource Centre
and We Worthy Women have partnered to deliver culturally and sector-relevant
financial literacy programming for rural newcomer women and families.
In Her Hands
In Her Hands project invites people across Nova Scotia/Mi’kma’ki to share their family’s immigrant history through stories about objects women brought from home countries which are still used or preserved by their families today.
