Mandate

The Rexdale Women's Centre is an independent, not-for-profit, voluntary agency that serves high-need women and their family members residing in the Greater Toronto Area.

 Our Mission is to support immigrant, newcomer and refugee women and their family members of all generations to become fully participating members of Canadian society who are self-sufficient, financially secure, safe, happy, healthy and socially active.  We accomplish this by enhancing our clients’ individual functioning skills and by facilitating their access to resources, agencies, and community services.  In particular, we assist our clients by providing programs and services that include, but are not limited to, settlement services, English language classes, violence prevention services, children’s services, family support services, and post-settlement services, among others.
30th Anniversary Celebration!

On August 23, 2008 the Rexdale Women’s Centre celebrated 30 years of service in the community.  More than 300 clients, community members, politicians, board members participated in a Walk-a-thon and Community Festival. The Community Festival was a celebration of cultures involving performances by our clients, children and youth, culminating with guest speakers and messages.  The support for the activities reinforced our role as a leading service provider in the community.  We thank all the staff and volunteers who made this a memorable and successful day.
