our impact In the 2021–2022 fiscal year, FTP’s program delivery continued to be adjusted to provide compassionate services to those in need, while ensuring both clients and FTP staff were safe. The intersection of domestic violence, homelessness and housing insecurity is the basis of our work at FTP. The lack of safe and affordable housing is often a primary barrier that women face when they choose to leave an abusive partner, and the fear of leaving a volatile situation during a pandemic created an even more difficult scenario for many. While our services remained uninterrupted throughout the pandemic, we needed to decrease the number of shelter rooms to accommodate physical distancing requirements, which was accomplished with the development of independent living spaces (see more on page 8). Our counselling services continued through virtual (phone, text and online) appointments and support. Despite the decrease in available shelter space, and a modified delivery of service across all programs, we continued providing the high-level of support that is expected by the communities we serve. We are dedicated to continuing to adapt our programs and services to accommodate the needs of our community and support a life free from abuse.
