We Want to Hear from You

For decades, the Centre has been a place of safety, support, advocacy, and connection. As our programs and services have grown, so has our community. This rebrand is an opportunity to honour our history while creating a name and identity that reflects who we are today—and who we strive to be in the future.
Our new brand will be inclusive of all women and gender-diverse people, including LGBTQ2S+ community members. It is important that our identity reflects the people we serve, the culture of care we uphold, and our shared vision of a safer, more empowered Yukon.
To get this right, we need your voice.
We are asking community members—especially those who use or have used the Centre—to share their thoughts through this short survey. Your feedback will help guide how we communicate our purpose, our values, and the welcoming space we aim to create for everyone.
This is your Centre. Your perspective matters.
Please take a few minutes to complete the survey and help us build a future that honours our past and strengthens the support we offer today.
Thank you for taking the time to share your input—your voice is valued.
