As identified in our Needs Assessment, funding is a major determinant as well as a handicap for the development of programs at Stardale. Each program component relies on special funding; depending on financial resources, it is sometimes very difficult to offer a particular program for a following term, even though there is tremendous demand for these programs in the region. Our team of partners is continuously searching for funding for these successful programs at Stardale, as well as for these programs to be maintained on an ongoing basis.
In March 2000, the Canadian Congress for Learning Opportunities for Women (CCLOW) held a conference in Toronto with 110 women in attendance. The Stardale program coordinator was invited to present a paper on the impact of trauma and violence on women's learning. Subsequently, further discussions and presentations took place at the First National Aboriginal Literacy Gathering at Nakoda Lodge in Alberta. As a direct result of those presentations, more and more discussions were taking place with other NGOs from across Canada that wanted to use Stardale as an exemplary model in structuring their programs.
