Summer is underway!

For the second year, the Elizabeth Fry Society of Saint John NB Inc welcomes Jill Sullivan & Abby Watson as our summer students.  They will be here for 10 and 8 weeks, respectedly. 

This summer, E. Fry will be taking a short hiatus from some of our regular programming so we can work on making changes to programs & services, volunteer recruitment, and many other things!

Look out for our newsletter in July!  If you'd like to receive one via email or by regular mail, please send your contact information to us at efry@nb.aibn.com

Around the Office

Things have been busy at E. Fry SJ! 

Erin & Robyn are currently facilitating Cross Roads to Success, and is in her third week of the Program.  All referrals have come from Youth Probation Services.  The Program is going really well!  As a new component, E. Fry is now able to provide the opportunity for all successful participants to apply for a scholarship toward their educational advancements!

The Human Rights in Action Training was greatly successful!  Kim & Candice came from CAEFS to facilitate the full-day training session.  It was educational and informative, and we have received really great feedback from those who attended.

With summer right around the corner, E. Fry is gearing up for summer students.  Our application has been sent in for SEED, and we eagerly anticipate new student workers this year.

Fundraising is still going on.  We're consistently sending out proposals for funding in hopes to be able to keep programs running and Erin in the office.

Rebels With A Cause Dinner & Silent Auction is approaching.  It will be held on May 6th, 2010 at 6:00 p.m.  It will be held at Lily Lake Pavilion.  Tickets are $65 each or $500 for a table of 8.  For more information, contact Berna Critchlow at bernacritchlow@hotmail.com
