Episode Synopsis

In this episode of United Voices, we dive into the critical work of the YWCA, with Kim Decker and Roz Gun from the YWCA Cambridge, and Jennifer Breaton and Liz Monteiro from the YW Kitchener-Waterloo, exploring their unwavering commitment to gender equity, childcare, housing, employment, and advocacy. Our discussion sheds light on the unique challenges faced by women experiencing homelessness, the importance of trauma-informed care, and the urgent need for community education and government accountability. With a focus on gendered spaces, emergency shelters, and long-term housing solutions, we explore how collective action can create meaningful change. Join us as we share insights, express optimism, and issue a call to action—because when we work together, we can build a more inclusive and supportive community for all.
