Community Support:

This year Vancouver Island Advocis has chosen to support the Victoria Women’s Transition House with our fundraising efforts from our continuing education program events. The VWTH provides a critical service in our community, supporting women who need to flee domestic abuse. Unfortunately, at times of crisis, the evidence shows an increase in gender-based violence in and out of the home. VWTH is here for women and children in our community needing support, a safety plan and a safe place away from violence and abuse.

Please join us in our efforts to support this vital service in our community: https://www.transitionhouse.net/donate-now/
