Federal Government Supports Project To Help Women Become Financially Independent

A three-year project to help marginalized women become financially self-sufficient and secure has received federal backing. 

The feds giving nearly $300, 000 to the Urban Core Support Network, and coordinator Brenda Murphy tells CHSJ News that hearing from local women is a key part of the initiative.

MP Rodney Weston made the announcement, and he tells us that if the information is shared throughout the country, it could benefit other communities who have the same problems we have here in Saint John.
