Sheway's goals fall into four core areas

  • To engage women in accessing prenatal care and a range of other supports during pregnancy
  • To promote health and nutrition of women and their children accessing prenatal and postnatal care at Sheway from pregnancy up to 18 months following birth.
  • To provide education, referral and support to women to help them reduce risk behaviors and, in particular, to reduce or stop use of alcohol and other drugs during pregnancy.
  • To support mothers in their capacity as parents and caregivers.
