Self-help groups for women are the focus of a project being sponsored by Women Today. The Women Being Well project has already trained nine community women who wish to establish support groups. This week eight more women begin the seven week course designed by Women Today staff. "The course is designed to: give women confidence in their own skills and knowledge to increase awareness of lifestyle choices that promote health; and to practice skills associated with working in groups", said Valerie Bolton, coordinator of the project. "We also have the women explore all resources and services within Huron County that will support their volunteer community efforts". The course involves a weekend training session, as well as six evening sessions. The course is being taught this fall by family counsellor and therapist, Nancy McLeod. "Unfortunately there are sever- al women who wanted to take the course whose family commitments prevent them fro, : spending a weekend or even'ngs away from home", said Bo' 3n. It is hoped that another group will be formed which will meet for eight sessions on Monday after- noons at the Women Today office. "We have three women already who wish to take the Monday afternoon course" said Sally Rath- well, project employee. "Those three women all wish to start groups for mother's with young children." she said. The Monday afternoon course will go ahead if three more participants are found. Women taking the training are given access to the Women Today library and files as well as start-up funding to get their groups established. Self-help groups are a form of promoting women's mental and physical health by giving women the opportunity to be mutually supportive of one another. The project has been funded by the Health Promotion Directorate of Health and Welfare Canada. For more information about the project call Women Today at 482-9706.
