Grab It Where You Can (1987)
Women's Education des femmes, Summer 1987 - Vol. 5, No. 4
Series: Canadian Congress for Learning Opportunities for Women (CCLOW)
Authors: Laura Jackson
Collection: Research Materials
How does a woman upgrade her education and skills when she lives in a remote northern community? When the only road winds 25 kilometers north-east to a couple of small villages on the lake? When the nearest university is several hundred kilometers away? And what happens when a woman has children at home, and no money to spare?
The author spoke to three such women of Labrador. For each one, ingenuity and imagination were part of the answer.
