Since 2000, more municipalities across Canada have been offering targeted
programming and scheduling for families, women and low income groups. But
did you know that women in disadvantaged circumstances-including immigrant
women, multicultural women, low-income women, and single-parent
mothers-report that they do not receive enough information about local
opportunities for physical activities and sport?
This WellSpring covers the following topics:
* The Issue: Physical Activity and Socio-economic Status
* The Response: CAAWS Focus Groups
* What Was Heard
* Barriers and Challenges
* Possible Solutions
* Looking Ahead
