New Foundations - Victoria

Provides a supportive learning environment for newcomer single parents to gain skills for life in Canada. The program runs from September to May, and participants meet as a group every other week for a two-hour workshop focusing on topics such as creating a budget on a small income, and tips for saving money; job search ideas and interview preparation; and healthy ways for managing stress. The program also includes a community kitchen where healthy, low-cost meals are cooked together that can then be made at home.
