Welcome

The Native Women’s Resource Centre is a culturally-based organization that delivers programs and services to empower and enrich Native women and children to build strong families and communities.

The idea for the centre was conceived by a group of Native women with a vision for a place where urban Native women could gather to meet, to talk and to council. The Centre first opened its doors with a humble start of 1985 in a basement office referred to endearingly as “The Pit”. Today the Centre is a major gathering place for a thriving community where women gather formally or informally to council or take advantage of the services provided there.

The NWRC delivers programs and service to women of Native

ancestry. Our services include, but are not limited to education, support services, and self-help groups. Programs are initiated and designed specifically for Native women and aim to ensure approaches are holistic and culture-based.

The Native Women’s Resource honors the Traditional Teaching of our Elders. We believe that these teachings are essential to the continued survival of our people. We of the Native Women’s Centre also believe in our ability to initiate, manage, and provide our own services.

The Native Women’s Resource Centre of Toronto, Inc. is registered as an incorporated non-profit organization. It facilities are located on 191 Gerrard Street East, Toronto, Ontario.
