“Homelessness is a common occurrence in the lives of many women. Already at a disadvantage in the economy in general, bad economic and social conditions increase the possibility and risk of homelessness to women. While these conditions have hit everyone, they have hit women disproportionately and particularly.”
-Dionne Brand, “Common Occurrence: Women’s Homelessness, Poverty and Marginalization” Available from Sistering.

Sistering is a community-based agency that has struggled with the reality of women’s homelessness, poverty and marginalization for over 20 years. Our programs, services and advocacy work in concert to provide women with as much support as possible while they take greater control over their own lives.

The reality is that our programs are no substitute for plentiful, affordable housing and a real commitment from government, in all its forms, to eradicate the root causes of homelessness.

However, our programs are particularly successful in reaching the women who need our services the most. Click to learn more about our Drop-in Centre and our Outreach Program.
