RURAL WOMEN’S MONTH PROCLAIMED IN SASKATCHEWAN

Released on February 28, 2012

The Government of Saskatchewan has proclaimed the month of March as Rural Women's Month in Saskatchewan.

"Women have always played a valuable role in their family farms and local communities," Agriculture Minister Bob Bjornerud said. "The hard work and leadership of women continues to be vital to the success of our province and agriculture industry."

"Women who live in rural areas play multiple roles that are key to maintaining our farms, our families and our communities," Social Services Minister and Minister responsible for the Status of Women June Draude said. "Rural Women's Month is an excellent opportunity to acknowledge the significant contributions of rural women past and present to the social and economic growth of our province, and to build on that success for future generations."

Rural Women's Month will be observed in conjunction with events held in March by various women's groups in communities across the province. These activities will recognize the contributions of rural women to the province and will raise awareness and appreciation of their role in Saskatchewan's development.
