In Support of Black History Month

Surrey Women’s Centre stands with Black survivors of gender-based violence. We join WomenatthecentrE – a Black survivor-led grassroots agency – to build a national equity strategy that fights anti-Black gender-based violence.

Black people are often at the forefront of social justice movements. But the contributions of Black women, girls, and trans folks are often ignored, erased or rendered invisible. Meet just a few of the Black activists in Surrey fighting to address anti-Black racism AND gender-based violence.

Our Diversity

Celebrate Our Diversity.

The population of Black Peoples in Canada is small but diverse. We come from all over the world.  Many of us call Surrey home. Black Peoples are the 5th largest “visible minority” group in Surrey. Surrey is also home to the largest Black population in BC. 21% of total Black population in the province call Surrey home.
