The Barrier Reduction Fund is intended to eradicate major barriers to women accessing addictions treatment programs, such as the cost of transportation and in some cases the cost of the treatment program registration. The barrier reduction fund is intended to reduce these barriers and support women to make positive changes around their addictions.
If you are a woman or know of a woman wanting to access these funds, fill out an application form and have it emailed to Paul Pringle at ppringle@bissellcentre.org and c.c. to Sissy Thiessen at: sthiessen@bissellcentre.org It can also be delivered in person to The Bissell Centre at 10527 96 Street NW, Edmonton, AB T5H 2H6
