My Story…
This fall I will be running in the Constantine Yorkville 5K charity run.
The charity I am supporting is Ernestine’s Women’s Shelter. As a pediatrician I see first hand the importance of women and children living in safety. What should be a fundamental right remains an ideal constantly under siege.
“Since 1983, we’ve helped over 15,000 women, children, and gender-diverse people rebuild with dignity and independence. Today, we serve over 700 survivors each year.”
In Canada 44% of women and 60% of queer, trans and gender-diverse people have experienced gender-based violence.
“Ernestine’s is a safe place to land and a strong place to start again - on your own terms and at your own pace.”
In solidarity,
Saxena
