Each year BFL delivers approximately 190,000 hours of services to 3,000 clients within the community. Half of the clients BFL serves come from beyond Canada’s borders, and only 30% have English as a first language.  \nWith more than two thirds of BFL’s clients being women, our teams observe first hand how life changing supports can help empower women. The ability and confidence to drive, as a core life skill, can expand employment opportunities and participation within community. We also recognized that the ability to drive can at times be directly linked to the ability to settle and integrate in community.  \nOur surveys show that 85% of refugee women cannot drive upon arrival in Canada and after five years, 4 out of 5 refugee women still cannot drive. It was also identified that a significant number of women in general are unable to drive and this has created a significant barrier to women finding a job, becoming financially independent, and contributing to the economy.  \nIn the summer 2020, BFL launched the “Women Driving Their Future”pilot program with great success. The program employed ICBCcertified instructors to deliver language specific theory and driving practicum to help women prepare and pass their driving test as well as obtain a BC drivers license. Demand for Women Driving Their Future continues to grow, with many women on a wait list for the program as well as several partner organizations who have recognized the potential of this program have clients seeking an opportunity to enroll as well.  \nBFL is looking for sponsorship opportunities to ensure the viability and longer-term delivery of this life-changing program for women who want to increase their employment prospects.  \nThank you for taking the time to review our proposal.  \nBFL WDTF| Page 2  \nPROGRAM FORMAT  \nThe Women Driving Their Future program is for women who wish to either build their driving confidence and gain a greater understanding of the “rules of the road” and signalization conventions, and/or prepare and practice to undergo testing for a driver’s license.  \nThe program as a pilot was a great success and we were able to test levels of interest and measure the success rates of program graduates in terms of completion of the theory and successful BC driving license (Class 5 or 7) . Our team administers the programs and contracts with instructors, selects participants, convenes the groups for theory sessions, and distributes the learning materials.  \nEligibility  \nThe program primarily aims to support women seeking to develop skills that will help them increase their employment prospects. Women accepted in this program face multiple barriers to successful settlement and integration in community.  \nWomen must be:  \n actively seeking to increase employment prospects  \n lower income household  \n basic English language skills  \n access to computer and vehicle as needed  \nComponents  \nThe program has two levels. Participants may apply for one or both levels if equivalent training or prerequisites have been met.  \nLevel 1-Driving Theory  \n 10 hours of classroom instruction  \n ICBC knowledge practice test support  \n Available in various languages, including English, Farsi, Dari, and Tigrinya  \n Learning resources provided in client’s first language  \nLevel 2-Driving Practicum  \n On-going intake, preference to graduate of Driving Theory component  \n Up to 10 hrs of road training (based on need of individual)  \n Access to the ICBC Road Exam (at no charge to the participant)  \n Driving Theory prerequisite or proof of equivalent training required to enroll in practicum only  \nBFL WDTF| Page 3  \nOUTCOMES  \nProfessional training about the rules of the r","cbCaijN8GytGBPeN","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijN8GytGBPeN","pdf",6682058,"English","# Project Overview\n## Program Format\n## Outcomes\n## Budget\n### Financial Scope\n### Sponsorship Tiers","[{\"question\":\"Who is eligible for the Women Driving Their Future program?\",\"answer\":\"The program supports women seeking to increase employment prospects despite barriers to settlement and integration.
