Women's Advocate Program
A Women’s Advocate is a specially trained workplace representative who assists women with concerns such as workplace harassment, intimate violence and abuse. The Women’s Advocate is not a counsellor but rather provides support for women accessing community and workplace resources. Find more information about Unifor's Women's Adovcate Program here.
