Women Moving Forward (WMF) began as a five year pilot program led by the Jane/Finch Community and Family Centre in 2005. As Toronto's first and only program designed for young single mothers (age 20-29) living in the Jane/Finch Community who are recipients of social assistance/Ontario Works/welfare, WMF's goal is to use post-secondary education and training to break the cycle of poverty for female-led, single-parent families.

The National Council of Welfare is deeply grateful to the women from the program who spoke at the release of Welfare Incomes, 2006 and 2007 at the Driftwood Centre in Toronto. Their stories give a human face to the struggle to get ahead.
