North York Women's Shelter
"The books for abused women and children provided through the Fine Print
Outreach Program will offer a glimpse of the world: a world of escape wherein
dreams do come true; a world of harsh reality where they can identify with
others who have had similar experiences and yet despite incredible odds
overcome and go on to share their lives in a meaningful way. These are but a
few of the possibilities now available to women and children at the North York
Womens Shelter through your Fine Print Outreach Program."
Nadia MacKay, Counsellor, North York Women's Shelter.
