Saskatchewan trustees resolved at the 1991 SSTA Annual Convention that joint action and increased resources were needed to meet a growing range of needs like hunger, increasing delinquency and family dysfunction that were getting in the way of children learning at school. The two governments also released a supplementary discussion paper Measuring Child Well-Being and Monitoring Progress that identifies indicators of success in meeting the NCA objectives. I m very pleased with the message senior governments are sending and I am hopeful improved resources to address children s needs will soon follow. Operators at that number can also provide information on public dialogue opportunities in Saskatchewan related to the National Children s Agenda. We must move quickly from vision to resources and action.
Children can t wait.
On The Move Education Week will be held in the fall rather than the spring, beginning in October. Education Week has traditionally been held in March, including this year. The Education Week committee has decided that the fall would be a better time of year. The Department of Education, with input from the education partners, co-ordinates Education Week. A few technological improvements have greatly sped up the work in the SSTA's Employee Benefits Department.
