After much encouragement to create additional stories, The Migrant Mothers Project is collaborating with Springtide Resources to create additional Digital Stories with women who have precarious status and their service providers. Starting in May 2014, we plan on creating six additional stories with women with precarious immigration status and service providers working with women with precarious immigration status to continue bringing awareness to the lived experiences of women with precarious immigration that live in Toronto.
We would like to collect diverse stories and seek to connect with live-in-caregivers, migrant workers and those with sponsorship experiences. We believe that this growing population must be heard, while ensuring anonymity and creating spaces of safety and belonging. We plan on using the digital stories as educational tools in organizations, school settings and presentations to continue to dialogue of precarious immigration status in Canada.
Links to the MMP Digital Stories are coming soon!
