of the Sheway Project

The Sheway Project is a unique outreach program located in the Downtown
Eastside of Vancouver, providing holistic services to pregnant women with
substance use problems, and support to meother and their families until
their children are 18 months old. Sheway takes a woman-centered,
harm-reduction, culturally focussed approach to service. This evaluation
documents the success of the Sheway project in engaging women in accessing
pre- and post-natal care, in making improvements in the housing and
nutritional status, and in retaining custody of their children. Also
identified are further service developments needed to support women in
reducing their substance use during pregnancy and to support the growth and
health of their children
