GOT YOUR BACK - Support Girls and Gender-Diverse Young People

Diverse girls and young people ages 9-19 are struggling with emotional and physical well-being, connection, belonging, confidence, and healthy relationships. Over the last two years, the situation has become more urgent as resources for young people become scarcer through increased demand and lack of funding.  

Community programs funded through the Canadian Women’s Foundation provide the safe, supportive environment they need now. By supporting GOT YOUR BACK you can help ensure these programs continue to be available to everyone who needs them. 

“I feel like I do not need to hide who I am. There are loads of opportunities to try new things.” Program participant, AB
