A Rocky Path: Understanding Access to Education Challenges for Newcomer Children and Youth
In 2016, the FCJ Youth Network produced a report assessing the school system in Ontario on 5 salient areas: Getting In, Equitable Participation, Anti-Discrimination, Support, and Moving On. Due to regressions observed in recent times, and by support and funding from the Maytree Foundation, we have constructed a more extensive version of the 2016 report card, to address the rising concerns, create a space for open communication, and foster actionable items for equitable change. This video covers the official launching of the new report’s Phase 1, which took place in Toronto on June 14, 2024.

‘Breaking The Silence’: A Conversation Around Feminicide
Breaking the Silence is a documentary that shows the violence that women are continuously facing, specifically in El Salvador. FCJ Refugee Centre was happy to release this documentary as a resource to create awareness about this situation around the world. The video will be available soon.
Message from the producer of the documentary, Gerson Peña:
I think that the main message to take away from the film is, that violence against women is continuing to happen and that there needs to be more done about it.
This is not an issue of El Salvador only, this is a global issue. Many people will look at the film and call it a feminist film or ask me why I made a feminist film. I think that this goes beyond that. This isn’t about feminism, this is about human rights, the basic human right to live. We are all humans and therefore we should all be one.
