A new advocacy group has been created for Aboriginal women in Prince Albert who don’t feel they have anywhere to turn.
Women of the Earth has been operating for the past six weeks out of a warehouse on River Street.
The group is composed of community leaders and features an Aboriginal board of directors.
Co-founder Marlene Frigon says they hope to assist residents who are experiencing problems with things like legal issues and education concerns.
Frigon says the group also has some staff members who speak Cree.
