After years of collaboration, Brock University and the YWCA Niagara Region are moving forward with a common goal: empowering local women and improving the lives of their families.

The two organizations formalized their partnership by introducing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) during a virtual event on Friday, March 4, 2022.

“By sharing our expertise and resources, Brock and the YWCA will continue working collaboratively in support of the social and economic well-being of women and children in Niagara. This MOU is an important example of Brock’s ongoing commitment to contributing to the well-being and vitality of our community and beyond.”

“This partnership has been years in the making and we are so pleased to have this formally recognized through this MOU. Working with Brock has supported our ability to tell our story to the broader community in a way that has had impact and influence.”
