Turned Away from Women's Shelters
During the course of one day, nearly 8,000 women and children in
Canada were found to reside in one of the 627 shelters for abused women
operating across the country.
However, 338 women and 201
accompanying children were turned away from shelters due to a lack of
room and resources. In fact, 56 per cent of all reasons for a turn-away
was because the shelter in question was full.
