Nellie’s Place and North York Women’s Centre are teaming up to offer a five-session, in-person series of workshops designed to empower and educate women on building healthy and fulfilling relationships, safe online dating and leaving abusive relationships.

This workshop will take place at 116 Industry Street in Toronto and is open to women, women identifying and non-binary people of all ages. Please spread the word!

You’ll build self-esteem and confidence and learn coping skills to draw on in challenging times in Discovering Our Power, a ten-week Women’s Empowerment Series.

This free virtual series helps you grow and create positive change through group sessions led by skilled facilitators, independent learning and one-on-one support.

The online program begins on October 17th from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and continues every Thursday.

Register here and we will be in touch to schedule an intake appointment between September 23 and October 4.

Selma Ainab, a summer NYWC Women’s Support Worker, reflects on making a meaningful impact in the lives of the women.
