Azerbaijani Women's Support Centre

Legal name: AZERBAIJANI WOMEN'S SUPPORT CENTRE

The Azerbaijani Women's Support Centre provides counseling, legal advocacy, and practical support to women from Azerbaijani and broader Central Asian communities in North York and the GTA. The organization addresses domestic violence, immigration-related challenges, and barriers to employment by offering culturally informed services in multiple languages. Counselors help clients navigate family law, access housing resources, and develop safety plans. The centre also runs workshops on workplace rights and financial independence. By understanding the specific cultural context and language needs of its clients, the organization removes obstacles that often prevent women from seeking help. The centre works with local agencies to connect women to additional services including mental health support and job training programs.
