LAKESIDE PROJECT

Following close to three years' of per-
iodic discussions and negotiation, the
Ministry of Education and the Ministry
of the Attorney General have reached an
agreement for the funding of a comprehen-

sive education program to be implemented

by Douglas College at the Lakeside
Correctional Centre.

The original project proposal was dev-
eloped by Mr. Les Boon from the Ministry
of the Attorney General and Mr. David
Ayers, former Director of Counselling
at Douglas. The project proposal has
been reviewed by an Inter-Ministerial
Committee which endorsed its intent.

The two Ministries involved have now
allocated sufficient funding to enable
the project to start.

The first year of the Project is to pro-
vide adult basic education, guided study
and as wide as possible a selection of
learning opportunities to students re-
sident in Lakeside and to people work-
ing there, the intent being that Lake
side students can continue their studies
after leaving. In addition, a social/
recreation component will be included

in the project. This first experiment-
al year will be used to test the project
concept, as well as specific program
elements or components, operational and
administrative structures and agency
working relationships. A formal eval-
uation report will be independently
written. Dr. Sheilah Thompson has agreed
to undertake the work.

During the first year, the project will
be located in the Conmunity Programs
and Services Division of the College.
All faculty and staff are invited to
participate. Al Atkinson and the A.B.E.
faculty are now involved. If you are
interested in participating or getting
more information about this project,
please call Jim Doerr at Agnes Site,
525-9211 or Al Atkinson at McBride
Site, 521-4851.
