| WOMEN AND
LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
CAAWS’ Women and Leadership Program consists of a series
of five professional development sessions that blend theory
with practical applications, and provide an opportunity for
women working or volunteering in the sport or active living
communities, recreation field or school system to share experiences,
reflect on ideas and apply specific techniques. The sessions
also allow for networking opportunities among participants.
