How to Join

Here, we explore the impact of financial challenges, and explore resources available to us. You will chance to learn, ask questions, and see if Circles feels like a good fit for where you’re at right now.
Getting Ahead is a 12–15 week program offered by YWCA Muskoka that supports individuals in exploring their own resources, learning about poverty in their community, and identifying their next steps. Graduates who feel motivated to continue their journey can become Leaders in Circles.
