The Woman Abuse Working Group (WAWG) is a coalition of more than twenty agencies in Hamilton, Ontario working to end violence against women. We are led by Violence Against Women (VAW) women’s organizations, working with community and government agencies, individuals, survivors and consumers, who are committed to the eradication of violence against women and their children.
