Strengthening Gender-Based Responses to End Violence Against Older Women in Ontario
Gap Analysis Overview
The gap analysis was undertaken to examine gaps in existing roles, resources, and responses to determine what training tools, techniques and topics frontline service providers in Ontario need when working with, supporting and advocating for older women who have experienced violence or may be at risk of experiencing violence. The ultimate goal of the gap analysis was to provide the AWV Provincial Advisory with an understanding of potential gaps to inform future directions and activities of the project over the next 3 years.

About the Aging Without Violence Project
In January 2018, OAITH received funding from the Ministry of Community and Social Services to lead a 4-year province-wide training and resource project focused on ending violence against older women (VAOW) in Ontario. Year 1 (2017-2018) of the project focused on three distinct information gathering activities, including a gap analysis, environmental scan and province-wide forum. This document presents the findings of the environmental scan, which consisted of a literature review and comparative analysis.
About the Environmental Scan
This section of the research provides an overview of the systems and tools in place to respond to violence against older women in Ontario and beyond. The environmental scan called for a review of literature, information, programs, services, and resources currently available to Ontario service providers working with older women experiencing violence. The scan focused on Ontario content; however, the comparative analysis included content and processes developed outside of the province and Canada. Findings from both methods helped inform the gap study, which is presented in the Gap Analysis Report.
