Men's
Resource Centre
Description
of the Men's Resource Centre It has been common for men to make effort to achieve "independence" and "self-reliance", often at the expense of important relationships with friends, family, and other community members. The Men's Resource Centre ackowledges that we live in a world in which we mutually depend on others for care and nurtuning. The Men's Resource Centre believes that it is important that men cope with stress in a manner that is also responsive to the needs of others; our approach remembers that relationships are important to men and that any actions undertaken will have an impact on men's partners, children and families. The Men's Resource Centre strives to acknowledge, bring attention to and challenge injustices, whether they occur in a personal or social context. The Men's Resource Centre acknowledges that men both perpetuate and bear consequences from these injustices, and believes that men play an important role in making this a fairer world for everybody to live in.
