Introducing the new National After She Leaves Website! 

We are excited to announce the launch of our new website, After She Leaves! 

The After She Leaves Website is a national resource created specifically for Canadian women’s advocates supporting women who have been subjected to intimate partner violence and are navigating family court.  

The site offers clear context, practical legal information, and advocacy-focused strategies to support your work. 

The better informed you are about family law basics and how family court operates, the more effectively you can support clients and make informed, timely referrals when legal help is needed. 

From Manual to National Website 

The content is drawn from the After She Leaves Manual, first developed by Luke’s Place in 2011 for advocates in Ontario. It quickly became an essential resource across the province, with the third edition released in 2022. 

In 2023, with funding from Justice Canada, work began to adapt After She Leaves for advocates across the country. This new website reflects partnerships with organizations in multiple provinces and territories, ensuring the content is relevant, inclusive, and responsive to diverse realities. 

With this new website, After She Leaves continues its commitment to equipping women’s advocates with accessible, reliable family law information.

For Ontario specific information, please visit LukesPlace.ca and FamilyCourtAndBeyond.ca.
