      <image:title>Blog - CWAVS UNDER NEW LEADERSHIP - We welcome our new Executive Director, Liza Scott!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Liza Scott (she/her) is a proud Quw'utsun and Pacheedaht woman, residential school survivor, and transformational leader with over 20 years of experience advancing justice, healing, and equity for Indigenous women, families, and communities. Previously, Liza served as Executive Director at Haven Society and was the national lead for the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG) initiative. She is also the co-founder of an Indigenous-owned business that features Coast Salish art. Now serving as Executive Director of Cowichan Women Against Violence Society (CWAVS), Liza leads with courage, cultural integrity, and a deep commitment to decolonizing systems from within. Her approach centers community, honours Indigenous knowledge, and supports the wellbeing of all staff—including those who are neurodivergent, racialized, 2SLGBTQIA+, or from other equity-denied groups. A proud mother and grandmother, Liza grounds her leadership in the strength of her ancestors and the responsibility to future generations. “We rise by lifting others—and by honouring the voices of those who were never meant to be silenced.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>On July 26th, Indigenous artists and youth performed with the giant salmon puppet during the 39 Days of July at Charles Hoey Park. Through the Healthy Relationships Program, the dedication of Indigenous youth and artists, and the generous funding from the Telus Friendly Future Foundation, this project was put together in a week before the performance! CWAVS is currently looking for a more permanent display of the salmon puppet and is connecting with other organizations that would like the puppet to be part of their events and celebrations. If you would like to learn more about the project, connect with the Healthy Relationships team by calling 250 748 7000 and asking for Robin or Tin Yan.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Newsletter - Spring into Celebration - International Women’s Day 2024: Inspire Inclusion</image:title>
      <image:caption>This year, we celebrated International Women’s Day with friends old and new at the Duncan Community Lodge. International Women’s Day is not only a day to remember our past, but to celebrate the incredible achievements of the amazing women in our community, and all over the world. We are still fighting for stronger, peaceful communities where everyone feels safe, welcome, and thrives. CWAVS invites you to celebrate, uplift, and dismantle systems that oppress women not only March 8th, but every day. We want to thank our wonderful caterers, Barnes and Maracle, and our bar sponsors Red Arrow, Stillhead, and Phillips for making the event refreshments spectacular. We also want to thank Rotary and RBC for their generous donations and event volunteering, as well as our bartenders and All Occasions DJ for making the event a blast! If you attended and haven’t filled out the feedback survey, you can find it here. Event feedback is essential in creating future community events that are more inclusive, equitable, and fun for all ❤️</image:caption>

      <image:title>Newsletter - Spring into Celebration - Work to be Done</image:title>
      <image:caption>On the opposite side of celebrating the incredible achievements of women comes the dark reality of Post-Covid-19 violence statistics. “Recent statistics from the Canadian Femicide Observatory for Justice and Accountability paint a grim picture of the challenges many women and girls still face. In 2023 alone, 189 women and girls were violently killed in Canada, with 145 cases involving primary or sole male accused (88%), marking a horrific 19% increase from 2019.” -BWSS Resources CWAVS has several programs to help survivors of abuse find their voice again. Stopping the Violence, PEACE, and Community Based Victim Services are counselling services for women and children who have experienced or are currently fleeing violence. CWAVS also has a transition house, Somenos House, where women and women and their children can go while they access support services. If you’re looking for online resources, Battered Women Support Services is an incredible hub of knowledge. This organization offers a comprehensive amount of resources regarding what you can do to end violence, what you can do to help someone experiencing violence, and what you can do if you need support.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Newsletter - Farewell 2023, Welcome 2024! - Giving Tuesday 2023</image:title>
      <image:caption>This year’s Giving Tuesday was incredible! Even while financial uncertainty is high, our community rose to the occasion and raised over $8000, which was matched by our amazing community partners. The focus of this year’s campaign was to bolster our PEACE program and Raven’s Nest Child and Youth Advocacy Centre. We are thrilled to announce that due to community support, Raven’s Nest has added another advocate to their team which will greatly increase our ability to help children in need. Individual Thanks to Jeff Hunter, Meredith Prescott, Elizabeth Biberger, Michelle Nelford and Blair Herbert from Biberger &amp; Associates Realty as well as Doyle and Jaclyn Childs, who are all part of the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation. We would also like to thank our other 2023 Giving Tuesday partner, the Garden House Foundation.</image:caption>
