Centre for Mutual Wellbeing

Founded in 2010, the Centre for Mutual Wellbeing (formerly The Coalition of Muslim Women of Kitchener-Waterloo) was built on the strength and leadership of Muslim women determined to stand up against hate, discrimination, Islamophobia, and gender-based violence. What began as a grassroots movement has grown into a dynamic organization serving diverse racialized communities across the Waterloo Region. Guided by our commitment to upstream, preventative work, we deliver innovative and culturally responsive programs that address systemic barriers to social and economic inclusion. With a focus on housing, gender-based violence, anti-hate initiatives, and public education, we continue to work toward our vision of a just, harmonious, and equitable community for all.
