Pledge to make a difference, together.
The Elizabeth Fry Society of Manitoba (EFSM) Inc. was established as an independent non-profit organization in 1983 to address the unique needs of women in the provincial and federal justice system.
We provide advocacy, access to resources and support to families of women who are in conflict with the law. Some of the issues our clientele struggle to overcome are addiction, poverty, mental health issues, marginalization, racism, long-term effects of residential schools and other forms of discrimination.
Some of the programs and resources we offer include: - Bail Verification & Supervision Program (supervision and support for women charged with offences) - Women for Change Program (anger management) - STOPlifting Program (addresses and explores why women shoplift or commit fraud) - Transitional Housing (bridging the gap between homelessness and independent living) - Clothing Depot (providing clothing packages to women who are incarcerated or have recently been released)
