| The Women's Fund of Herkimer and Oneida Counties |
| The Status of Women Committee has published their report concerning the status of working women with limited economic opportunities in Oneida and Herkimer counties. The Women's Fund hopes this report will be useful for all community agencies in their work with clients and will provide information for those agencies seeking funding for services. The Status of Women Committee has begun a new project concerning women who care for aging or disabled relatives at home. If you are interested in providing feedback, please contact The Status of Women Committee through this link: womensfundhoc@centralny.twcbc.com |
