The Minisewin Family Resource Center has programming running to engage children, youth, and families in The Pas, OCN, and the surrounding area.

 

Michelle, the Community Cultural Coordinator for the center, talks about her vision for the program.

 

They are currently running a Literacy program where parents can bring their children, read books with them, and create their own book to take home. The center is also running a Nutrition Bingo, with winners receiving a nutritional meal kit to take home.

 

Michelle notes the importance of creating a safe space for women and girls who are victimized by gender-based violence. Her goal is for them to come into the center and try some cultural activities in a welcoming environment.
