The researchers wish to acknowledge the support of Lorri Biesenthal of the Research and Statistics Division, Justice Canada and Katalin Kennedy of the Family Violence Prevention Unit, Health Canada, in making this project possible. We would especially like to thank all the women from the ORWAS project who agreed to participate in this follow-up study, including the project leaders from Justice Canada and CAPRO, the community researchers, and the women survivors from the communities. It is our hope that this report accurately reflects their experiences of participating in a community-based research project.
