Jaimie Mintenko, Lindsay Martin, and Maria Talarico discuss the importance of International Women's Day.
THUNDER BAY – When we inspire others to understand and value women’s inclusion, we forge a better world.
“From when I first started with the university, we have generally seen more women in similar roles increasing over time,” Mintenko said. Lindsay Martin is the executive director of the Elizabeth Fry Society Northwestern Ontario, which supports and advocates for women, Two-Spirit, non-binary and gender diverse people in prison, those transitioning back into the community, and those at risk of criminalization.
“We have outreach workers and individuals who are working within that housing program who are assisting individuals with referrals and getting them into programs for income support, family reunification as well as moving on to more independent housing options for them.” “We have a mobile program called Paro on Wheels, which brings our team members out to women in the communities,” Talarico said.
