Advocacy & Policy 

McAuley Community Services for Women is committed to advocate for a better, safer and just society. This is enacted at an individual level through our programs and at a structural level through our Advocacy Program.

Our Advocacy Program has three main areas:

  • Prevention of Family Violence and Homelessness
  • Influence on Public Policy
  • Promotion of MCSW work and mission

These areas are addressed through:

  • Research
  • Program evaluation
  • Participation in sector networks and government committees
  • Awareness raising through public speaking, media and lobbying.
