Outreach Worker
CHEO ยท Ottawa, ON
I have been working in the health sector for the past 15 years, with 11 of those years at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario. I have the opportunity to work with families on a daily basis, many of them being newcomers to Canada.
In November 2019, I had the great pleasure of being nominated to take part in the first cohort of the N4-SPU program. Prior to accepting the nomination, I researched the courses given in this program. Looking through each class description, I felt that with my current position at CHEO as an Outreach Worker, I could benefit from addition education and expand my understanding in area's such as multiculturalism, immigration and social justice.
