Girl Power in the New Year
The girls are back!
For years, girls and parents have been telling us that the Girl Power summer camps were too short! We heard you, and launched an after school program last October. They're learning about gender, friendship and conflict, which you can read more about on the
blog! The program starts up again on January 5th from 3:30pm-5:30pm. This is a free, drop-in program for girls 10-13 years old.
The Women's Centre is busy recruiting volunteer lawyers for a new series of one-on-one Legal Advice Clinics on immigration issues. The program is set to launch in April. Contact Linda at linda@womenscentrecalgary.org with any questions or to volunteer.

We have heard from many women who have had dangerous experiences at this crosswalk and are now trying to collect those stories. Please email Sarah at
