Women’s health is determined by a broad range of social, environmental, economic and biological factors and is affected by gender discrimination, sex role stereotyping, age, ethnicity, racism, disability, sexuality, and sexual preference.

Essential elements of the health process are information, consultation, advocacy, and community development, encompassing health promotion, disease prevention, equity of access to appropriate and affordable services and illness treatment services. WILMA Women’s Health Centre is committed to ensuring that all these factors are considered when providing services at the Centre.
