The four major target areas are Scotland. Robeson, -Hoke and Bladen Counties.

The most recent figures from the Women’s Bureau and other governmental agencies show that: 53.9 percent of all women over the age of 18 are in the work force. Even if a woman marries, she can still expect to work for 25 years. 13 million women with chil dren are in the labor force. today—it is a critical necessity- but it is still often hard to see the forest for the trees. The environment in which women find themselves at different stages in their lives influences their actions, cfroices, and decisions in ways which may seem natural and, indeed, inevitable at the time, but which tend to limit their self- concept. mobility, and hori zons. Such examples point up the need for women to rethink their lives in terms of inde pendence and to resfruclnre their careers in terms of self insurance. This requires an informed consciousness of the situation- whether on a "life planning” basis, from age 5 to 65. or on a "spot plotting” a given circumstance. ba.sis i Consider the high school girl- electing to take another One .out of every 8 families is literature course instead of headed by a woman. The divorce rate has more than doubled .since 1962 and is still rising. Child support by fathers in divided families is nearly nonexistent, and The majority of old people who are poor are women. "Life planning” for women is more than just an idea mathematics or science. Con sider the college woman- worried about making better grades than her boyfriend. Consider the working woman- training a young man who will bypass her on the executive ladder. Consider the employed wife and mother- frying to make the same pTofes,sional commitment as her male coun terpart, yet still fulfill her traditional role. Consider the woman left alone- sometimes too late for reeducation or "The big news is that women are making head way- slowly in the executive suite, faster at the lower rungs "f middle management.” states an article on "The Corporate Woman” in Busi ness Week. November 27. 1975. Clearly, the tenor of the times, on both a personal and professional .level, indicates that women should move to take advantage of their in creased opportunities. To dt' so means that such sorry conditions as the foilowint! must be reversed; In a quiz given to managers of major Ciirporations, 90 percent of the women did not know what they wanted to be di-ing in five years and 90 percent of the men did.‘"I'he men were trying to manage their careers and the women were just drifting,” savs Mar garet Henning wjio, with Anne ' Jardin, co- directs the gradu ate program in management at Simmons College in Boston. Pride in oneself and pride in one's work suggest that many women may want to take a good hard look at where thev are now and where they are going. What circumstances and conditions surround you. inter nalty and externally'^ How do they fit in with what you want to accomplish? What educa tion. training or experience can you build into your present situation that will help you attain your goal in the future? What steps do you need to take and how do you go about them?
