REGINA GROUP RECEIVES SPIRIT AWARD

Released on September 29, 2006

Stepping Stones Child Care Co-operative of Regina received its Spirit Award for Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) in the category of Early Learning and Child Care in a ceremony yesterday evening.

"Saskatchewan is known for its community spirit," Community Resources Minister Buckley Belanger said while attending the award ceremony. "Stepping Stones and other human service CBOs form an integral part of the social services sector. It is another excellent example of the determination that exists in the sector to develop caring and vibrant communities and of the success that can be realized through goodwill and co-operation."

"The staff, parents and board at Stepping Stones Child Care Co-operative feel very honoured to be chosen as a recipient of the award," Stepping Stones Executive Director Donna Rice said. "Receiving this award has been a wonderful opportunity for us to reflect on changes within our agency and in the child care community since we first opened our doors 29 years ago."

Stepping Stones recently opened its third location and expanded its family support programs to meet the community's child care needs and to offer additional programs that benefit the whole family.

This is the first year of the Spirit Award for CBOs. It was created to honour the human service CBOs that deliver programs and services on behalf of Community Resources and help address pressing social issues at the local community level. CBOs that received funding in the last two years from Community Resources or the Saskatchewan Housing Corporation, an agency of Community Resources, to provide programs or services in one of the five award categories were eligible.

Award recipients were selected by a group of individuals from the education, government, Aboriginal and community sectors based on their ability to make a difference in people's lives and their demonstrated success in areas such as building inclusive families and communities, good governance, accountability and linkages with others groups.
