Join us on March 15th at 1:00 for a community learning session with Elizabeth Fry Society of Northern Alberta

The essence of Elizabeth Fry&#x27;s religiously inspired thinking about prisoners (male and female) was that they were fellow human beings. Their treatment, therefore, should be based on ‘the principles of justice and humanity.’The Elizabeth Fry Society of Northern Alberta started out as a group of volunteers with an office in the old Provincial Courthouse in 1977. This team of volunteers dedicated themselves to serving their community, and we have continued to do so since! We believe in advancing the dignity and worth for all women, girls, and gender diverse folk. We offer a range of programming, spanning from Red Deer to Northern Alberta, including:- Employment Services- Housing- Independent Legal Advice for Sexual Assault Survivors- Indigenous Womens Programming- Financial Literacy (and matched savings!)- Prison liaison work and reintegration support- Youth Programs- Record Suspensions- Outreach Services- Free Counselling SessionsDuring the session on March 15, they will give an overview of Elizabeth Fry’s history, their programming and touch on why they do what they do!
