With the COVID-19 situation, most of us around the world have been forced to stay home. While that will keep more of us safe from the Coronavirus, for some this may be tougher time than ever.


Many have warned domestic violence may become worse during this time of social isolation. In this episode, we will speak with Jennifer Hutton, CEO of Women's Crisis Services of Waterloo Region (WCSWR), an organization that helps women and their children in situations of domestic violence. This is an impactful community organization in the Waterloo Region in Southern Ontario, Canada.


Jennifer will speak to us about Women's Crisis Services of Waterloo Region; what it is, what programs it offers, how the programs have been proven successful for the women they helped, how to reach out for support when in need and how all of us can help.
