| Re: Kaur Power: Plans for an advocacy project at SPN
Not to engage in Gurudwara politics, I find this a very uplifting, progressive idea/thought/plan. I'm sure that Mata Bhag Kaur would, too.

Mai Bhago Safe House :happykaur:
Women | Sikh Youth Campaign – Guru Nanak Sikh Temple, Surrey, BC The issue of domestic violence has plagued the Sikh community in recent years fuelled by social inequality. As a long term goal, we plan to set up the Mai Bhago Safe House which will allow victims of domestic violence to escape abuse and allow them to rebuild their lives in a safe and supportive environment. We hope to build a team of professional Punjabi speaking counselors and support staff who will be integral to the success of this program. It is our hope to link, liaise, and organize with community based organizations currently offering programs for women to address the lack of support services for women. Counselling and support services will be brought in directly at the Gurdwara Sahib in an effort to reach a large number of women in our community. We will focus on education and empowering women in becoming strong, educated, and active members of the community.
