Help Shape Alberta's 10-Year Plan to End Gender-Based Violence
Official title: Gender-based violence engagement
Why This Matters
Gender-based violence affects people across Alberta—survivors, families, and communities. This plan will determine how $54 million gets spent on shelters, support services, and prevention programs. If you or someone you know has been affected, this shapes what help will be available.
What Could Change
Alberta will release a 10-year strategic plan guiding investments in gender-based violence prevention and survivor support. New programs and services could be funded through the $54 million federal allocation. The plan will complement existing work on missing and murdered Indigenous women and human trafficking.
Key Issues
- How should Alberta invest $54 million to end gender-based violence?
- What best practices and research should inform the strategic plan?
- How can the plan best support survivors and their families?
How to Participate
- This consultation has closed. An online survey was available from October 12 to November 30, 2023.
- Written submissions and targeted sessions with community organizations were also part of the engagement.
What Happened
