Mayor and Council are committed to making Vancouver a place where all women and girls have full access to the range of services and resources provided by the City.
Latest updates
In 2023, we invested $1.1 million in grant funding into 19 women-serving organizations through our Social Policy grants program.
We also make sure that all women have opportunities to fully participate in the political, economic, cultural and social life of Vancouver.
