The Hope2Health Project
The Hope2Health project is an initiative of the Ending Violence Association of BC (EVA BC). The project is generously funded by Women and Gender Equality (WAGE) Canada.
The project goal is to strengthen and develop partnerships between anti-violence and health sectors to enhance cross-sector collaboration and action on sexual assault in British Columbia.
