**About AIWCC**

The Alberta Immigrant Women & Children Centre is a registered charitable organization in Edmonton, Alberta. AIWCC assists and provides support to women and children in need. AIWCC recognizes, responds to, and focuses on the specific concerns of immigrant and refugee women and their families.

In turn, the parent will teach that curriculum to their prepscholar for 15 minutes daily, 5 days a week.
