Homeward Bound ~ Breaking the cycle of poverty for mother led families
This past year has been very exciting! Four single mother led families joined our Homeward Bound program in May 2018. After 16 weeks of upgrading, they started their chosen programs at Fleming College in September. The program is a 4 year commitment and will lead them to full time sustainable living wage careers.
"I was scared. I didn't think I could manage being a student again, let alone a student with two kids. Fast forward almost a year, and here I am...an engineering student, and I'm loving every minute of it!"
From a Current Homeward Bound Participant
We are currently accepting 8 more mother led families into the Spring program. This may be your opportunity to break the cycle of poverty for yourself and your children.
Information Sessions about the program will take place at Peterborough Housing Corporation, located at 526 McDonnel Street, Peterborough on:
Tuesday, February 25th, 2019 from 2:00pm to 3:00pm
Thursday, February 27th, 2019 from 6:00pm to 7:00pm
