Most are raising young families with an average household income of ~$40,000 and 31% are single parents. A degree from Labour茅 means a rewarding career, a livable wage, and economic independence.
Labour茅 is honored to be a past recipient of Highland Street Foundation support as well through an endowed scholarship founded in 1998. The college also awarded Ms. McGrath the Catherine Labour茅 Medal that same year. The JoAnn McGrath Scholarship is disbursed annually to students pursuing their nursing or healthcare degree at Labour茅.
