Community Networking Coalition Progesses – Needs Input

The Prince Albert Community Literacy Plan is progressing very well. We have sponsored certification training in WHMIS, First Aid/CPR, Food Safe and Computer 1, 2 & 3. All classes have been full – we have provided transportation, childcare, etc for those who needed it in order to participate. We offered an “Introducaiton to Family Literacy” class and a two day facilitator training class for Alphabet Soup. These classes were also full and very successful.

We are sponsoring a poster competition for students in May/June with the topic of “My Body – My Mind” making the connection between health and literacy. We are also developing (8 components) on work place skills that will be delivered to community members in June.

Another area that we want to develop is a contact list for families and community members who may not have access to information about things that they could attend with their families (free or low cost) as well as basic information about topics of interest/educational. I receive so much good information through the CNC that could be directed to families and community members for their information and knowledge.

This is my request:
Please talk to your clients/volunteers/community members and ask them if they want to be on an e-mail contact list to receive information about family events (free or low cost) and other information that would be of general interest to them.

They can request that their names be taken off at any time and their contact information will not be given out to anyone.

Please send me the names of the people who want to be on the list and their e-mail address. This is voluntary for community members and is for the purpose of increasing their access to information that would be of benefit to them.

Thank you so much for your help – this will be an exciting addition to our CNC information flow and an excellent way of making use of information for the benefit of the whole community.
