Achieving Economic Equity
As Canada’s largest provider of employment and counselling programs for women, YWCA Canada’s work is centred on ensuring women and gender diverse people know that there’s a place for them in today’s society, which includes economic empowerment through financial literacy training, anti-poverty work, closing the gender wage gap, and addressing the systemic undervaluing of feminized professions.
Some ways YWCA Canada strives to achieve economic equity are:
- Employment Counselling
- Reskilling Programs
- Apprenticeship Programs
- Continuing Education Services
- Inclusive Workplace Supports
- Financial Literacy Training
