Women's Services
Providing safe, supportive programs for women in the Valley who have suffered violence or abuse is another branch of services available at YCS. Women's Services counselling, supports and education are available through our offices. These programs are free and are provided in Barriere and Clearwater.

Community Connections for Women's Safety
In March 2015, the Community Connections for Women's Safety (CCWS) program came to end resulting in two reports from Stakeholders meeings. At these meetings, Adrienne Pullen, Ava Perraton, and Michele Walker (author of the Addendum) brought the communities up to date with the Community Connections for Women’s Safety program’s work and shared the next steps forward. Feel free to read the Gender-Based Analysis, Community Plan and Addendum to the Community Services reports that were available at the meetings.
