Be Part of a Movement.

This year, Surrey Women's Centre is celebrating Black History Month by standing with all Black women, girls, and trans survivors of gender-based violence. Black people are often at the forefront of social justice movements. But the historic contributions of Black women, girls, and trans folks are often ignored, erased or rendered invisible.

The feminist movement is no different.

So, this year Surrey Women's Centre is standing with our friends at WomenatthecentrE off our partnership by celebrating honouring the Black women we work with every day by centring their voices and lived experiences. Meet just a few of the Black activists who are fighting for justice, freedom and equality for all survivors of gender-based violence in the City of Surrey.

But our commitment doesn't stop there.

We are kicking off a new partnership with WomenatthecentrE to build a national equity strategy for Black survivors of gender-based violence. Surrey is home to the largest population of Black people in province of BC. So, we have an important role to play to ensure that the voices of Black women, girls and trans survivors are heard. And no one is left behind.

Join us in our commitment to increase the safety and support for Black survivors of gender-based violence.

This project and partnership is funded by the Department of Women and Gender Equality Canada (WAGE)
