The Women's Centre of Calgary will host a Women and Community focus group on Monday, March 15th. It will run from ten in the morning until one in the afternoon and include a feast of buffalo stew, salad and bannock. Women from all backgrounds are welcome. The staff at the Women's Centre encouraged us to give an honorarium to the participants to cover some of their expenses for attending as well as to show that we honor their time. We agreed to offer this for the Women's Centre Focus Group but do not have the budget to do this for any other focus group.
We will offer the $20 honorarium to the twelve to sixteen participants who attend. Though we realize this is not enough to cover all of the expenses that participants will have to pay in order to attend the focus group, nor is it an adequate wage for the time these women will be giving, this is all that our budget will allow. Our goal is for these participants to take away a deeper understanding of the inter-dependence of their communities and how they may enhance their role within and develop their vision for their own community. Register in person at the Women's Centre of Calgary or by phone at 403-264-1155. Art in this post by Suzanne Cheryl Gardner.
