About Us Over 25 years ago a dedicated group of Aboriginal women recognized the need for a meeting place in Toronto for Aboriginal women to share resources, support one another, and practice their traditional ways. Based on this vision and determination a basement office was opened in 1985 and became affectionately known as “The Pitt.” The Native Women’s Resource Centre of Toronto (NWRC) continues to honour the vision of our founders by providing a welcoming atmosphere for all Aboriginal women and their children in the Greater Toronto Area. As a registered charity, we offer life-enhancing resources, cultural ceremonies and teachings, skill development, and programs to build our collective capacity and celebrate our cultures. Our programs fall under five broad categories: Housing and Advocacy, Youth, Parenting, Employment & Education and Culture & Spirit. We are growing along with Toronto’s Aboriginal population — running eight programs out of a four-level heritage house at 191 Gerrard Street East. All Aboriginal women are welcome — please come and Visit Us. Our Philosophy Our work and direction is guided by the Seven Grandfather teachings: Wisdom, Love, Respect, Bravery, Honesty, Humility, and Truth. Our teachings, traditions, and cultures inform our all of our activities.
