Wildlife Rehabilitation CCWR is working towards a Wildlife Custodian Authorization, to be issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources. We are applying for the funding needed to build our intake clinic and animal enclosures in the hope of taking in injured and orphaned fawns and raccoons starting in spring 2010. Public Education Some harm to wildlife can be prevented through public education. CCWR will develop an extensive campaign to inform the public on the role people can play in minimizing the impact humans have on wildlife. Advocacy CCWR believes that we need to respect nature and that all life should have value and meaning. When human industry interferes with the balance of nature, we need to take a responsible approach. CCWR will work with city officials and developers, speaking on behalf of wildlife when its well-being is threatened by land development. Sanctuary Our sanctuary animals continue to receive excellent care for the rest of their lives.

The Centre for Family Literacy provides a wide range of adult and family literacy programs in Edmonton, as well as training, resources, information and awareness across Alberta and Canada. Working with numerous partners and community agencies, the Centre serves more than 6,600 Albertans every year. Literacy is clearly linked to education, employment, income levels, health and involvement in the criminal justice system. There is also a tendency for low literacy levels to be repeated from one generation to the next. Through family literacy programs, all parents – even those with lower literacy skills – can provide their children with the early language and literacy activities essential to success in school. At the same time, parents often improve their own literacy skills through these programs and go on to other upgrading programs.
