Our guest today is FCJ Refugee Centre’s Executive Director, Loly Rico, who has just been chosen as one of the recipients of the YWCA Women of Distinction Awards 2022, in the category of Refugee Rights. She talks about the significance of this important recognition and also about the challenges that refugee women face in a city like Toronto.
