Stacey Schat – Director of Women’s Programs, YWCA Muskoka
Stacey is currently the Director of Women’s Programs at YWCA Muskoka. Stacey joined the YWCA in 2010 and helps facilitate and develop innovative programs to assist women and their children in Muskoka.
YWCA Muskoka envisions a world in which girls, women and gender-diverse people thrive in a safe and equitable society. Having witnessed the erosion of women’s independence and economic stability during the COVID pandemic, she feels strongly that YWCA’s Women in Business program offers women tools and coaching they need to start their own businesses, on their own terms.
