Empowering Pathways for Women is a 12 week programme which empowers women to become leaders in their own lives.

Empowering Pathways for Women programme helps strengthen women’s choices and participation in all aspects of their lives.

We developed this programme in response to the needs of women who are overcoming complex issues and experiencing multiple obstacles to the building and re-building of their lives. The aim of the programme is to provide safety, support and encouragement for women to strengthen their sense of belonging and worth, and choose positive pathways towards participation in all aspects of their lives.
