A safe place for women and their children. We host positive awareness events that are family oriented and take part in many community wide activities.

Women living in abusive situations in the rural and farm communities in South Simcoe County face many barriers to leaving the violence in their lives including: isolation from community supports, lack of transportation, and high rent. These women have often experienced physical, emotional,religious, financial, verbal and sexual abuse within their intimate relationships. Their children may have experienced trauma from the domestic violence they have witnessed in the home.

“My Sister’s Place” provides safe refuge to women and their children who are fleeing abusive relationships or looking for guidance, or counsel. "My Sister’s Place” serves over 1,000 women (and their children) annually in both our residential and non-residential services. In the shelter, staff offer crisis counseling, emergency transportation support, referrals to other community services, and legal and housing support to women and their children. Our Outreach/Legal Advocate travels throughout the South Simcoe County area to provide these same confidential services to women and their children who choose to remain in their rural communities.

“My Sister’s Place” relies on provincial government funding and the financial support of our local communities to keep our shelter doors open for the women and children of South Simcoe County. It is through the ongoing support of community partners, businesses, organizations and individuals that we can continue to provide safe shelter, counseling, and outreach services. We help to HEAL, EDUCATE and EMPOWER women and children and strive to encourage women to live the violence-free lives that they are entitled to. It is our mission to help break down barriers, stop the cycle of violence and educate our community to ensure that women and their children can live with dignity, confidence and abuse free. We are always looking to increase our volunteer team and we promote group volunteering to encourage team building in the workplace. We have a quarterly newsletter and a website at www.mysistersplace.ca

My Sister’s Place is receiving a $45,400 provincial grant from The Ontario Trillium Foundation.
We will be using the funding to upgrade our technology systems, strengthen information security, and expand outreach capabilities for women and children experiencing violence and abuse in Simcoe County. These upgrades are needed to maintain the organization’s services and protect sensitive information.

On Wednesday October 7th we attended this Innisfil Community Foundation Annual Roundtable. This is a great afternoon gathering of not-for-profits who serve the township of Innisfil. Each service or group had a chance to share who they were, how they serve the community and how they hoped to further there service to Innisfil. It was a good opportunity for attendees to learn about each other and possibly find some common goals.
The Innisfil Community Foundation is a grant making charity that invests local donations into community driven projects and registered charities, that improve the quality of life in Innisfil.
