About OVISTA
In 2012, the Quesnel Women’s Resource Centre was awarded a three year contract through Status of Women Canada which was named the Ovista Project (Our Vision Is Stopping The Abuse). The project was researched based and aimed to address the specific needs around violence and abuse against women and girls in Quesnel and surrounding areas.
Ovista’s goal was to establish working partnerships with women and girls, local organizations, community leaders and various stakeholders to look at the issue of violence against women and develop a coordinated community response in the context of our local issues and needs. The project has been driven by the viewpoints and feedback received from women and girls who have lived experiences, as well as service providers working in the field. This website was developed in response to feedback received from all parties. For more information on the Ovista Project please contact the Quesnel Women’s Resource Centre at [email protected] or 250-992-8472.
