Financial assistance to farm women groups . OTTAWA - Farm women's or- . ganizations across Canada will ben- efit from Agriculture Canada's new - Farm Women's Advancement Pro- gram 'which will provide additional financial. assistance to farm wom- cn's•groups. The.program, announced today by Agriculture Minister John Wise and Minister of State for Agriculture Pierre Blais, will have a budget of S650,000 over the -next five years- to help organizations address the needs and special circumstances of farm women. 1t is designed to encourage more farm women to become ac- tively involved in the agri-food tor. About About 90 organizations will be eligible for assistance through pro- ject grants. It is essential to recognize and re- inforce the vital contributions of .farm women to Canadian agricul- ture," Mr. Wise said. The- progr.•rrt is being designed to support legal and economic equality for women, promote their increas- ing participation in decision-making. on the farm and recognize their im- portant contribution to the well- being of the agriculture sector. "The Farm Women's Advance- ment Program will help women to continue progressing and playing a greater rote in decision making in the agriculture business," Mr. Blais said. Criteria for -determining priorities are now being finalized in consulta- tion with faun women's groups across the country. Projects eligi- ble for grants will likely include in- formation, education and training programs. Also eligible would be programs aimed at presenting farm women's concerns to government, attendance at conferences, and pro- grams to promote awareness of farm women's involvement in agricul- ture: The amount of federal funding will depend on the merits, funding priorities and other potential sources of support for each project. Farm women's issues arc defined as- women's issues that have differ- ent applications to faun women be- cause of their special circumstances. These include economic security and equality, access to farm credit, child care and family responsibili- ties. i Playhouse .contributors entertained at party By MRS. HUGH MORENZ .
