Our Mission

We believe that all violence against all women and children must end. We are community members who are committed to education, advocacy, harm reduction, and poverty reduction as a means to end violence. Huronia Transition Homes is also committed to providing shelter and support to abused women and their children and to providing counselling to women survivors of sexual assault and socioeconomic opportunities through social enterprise.

Aims & Beliefs

Aims

We will make every attempt to understand and respect women’s diverse life experiences and the impact of violence on their lives. We will work with the women we serve to achieve their goals.
We will continue to educate ourselves and our community on issues of oppression and liberation. This will lead to social change and to an end to violence against women.
We will continuously monitor and evaluate our organization to ensure that our beliefs are being lived.
In an attempt to reduce the negative impact of power imbalances, we will share information, resources and knowledge with the women we serve.
We will strive to make our properties and services more physically, geographically, linguistically, culturally and financially accessible to the women we serve.

Different experiences and additional barriers exist in shelters, communities and institutions for Indigenous women, racialized women and women from low socioeconomic backgrounds
Violence against women is a human rights violation and that perpetrators must be held accountable
