Foundation Work For Daughters Day
Summary
Prior to the first Daughters Day event in September of 2012, CCS had two special events in the spring of the year to begin to lay the foundation for its signature event. As part of the groundwork, the first community engagement was held at a coffee house – The Carrot – that featured the talents and sharing of Indigenous women. The second such session was organized at NorQuest College with a focus on the experiences of newcomer women.
As an annual feature, the Daughters Day is now one among the key community activities that most Edmontonians look forward to every fall.
