Sydney Wouters (BSW;RSW)

Program Manager/ Social Worker

Sydney Wouters joined the Elizabeth Fry Society of Saskatchewan in July 2020.

Sydney completed her Bachelor of Social Work in 2019 at the University of Regina and is registered with the Saskatchewan Association of Social Workers. During her time as a student, Sydney witnessed the issues facing women and saw barriers that were difficult for people to navigate. After completing her education, Sydney went on to worker as a Child Protection worker, where she gained practical knowledge on the roadblocks and issues facing women in Saskatchewan. This inspired her to be on the frontline and help women navigate the system.

Sydney is responsible for the provision and coordination of services to clients both in prison (Provincial and Federal) and in-community, with the goal of providing information, resources and support that meets the unique needs and circumstances of her clients. She assists women in creating their plan for reintegration back into the community. As part of the women’s services team, Sydney aids women with housing, life-skills, education, employment, and referrals to other community-based organizations.
