Our Mission

Women's Multicultural Resource and Counselling Centre of Durham (WMRCC) is a registered charitable and community based organization, founded in 1993 to provide trauma informed care counselling, services and programs to women of all ages, youth, children, gender diverse, women with disabilities, newcomers, and immigrants from diverse backgrounds with lived experiences of intimate partner violence, and abuse. WMRCC is also a Centre for Worker Cooperative Development Program, promoting economic advancement for newcomers and immigrant women. WMRCC uses the intersectionality of Gender-Based Violence  Plus (GBV+) Analysis. That is how gender intersects with race, sexuality, disability, age, class, income, religion, and other identities to create barriers and layers of oppression for vulnerable and under-served communities.
