The $1.46 million in additional funding recently announced by the provincial government will support 10 organizations and programs across the province to address gender-based violence.

The funding is being provided based on each organization’s alignment with the five pillars of the National Action Plan: foundational knowledge; support for survivors and their families; prevention; responsive justice system; and Indigenous-led approaches; and social infrastructure and enabling environment.

In a news release Minister Responsible for the Status of Women Alana Ross said. “The funding will support prevention programs that help stop violence before it starts and expand services for people who experience violence. This is practical support that helps women, children and families live safe, healthy, and prosperous lives.”

This funding will be provided in 2026 and 2027 to the following community-based partners and agencies to develop tools to support outreach, programming and advocacy. Some of the groups include $280,000 for the Provincial Association of Transition Houses and Services of Saskatchewan (PATHS) and $250,000 for the Saskatchewan SPCA.
