In part one, we are joined by Rebecca Stiller, an assistant professor from the Department of Child and Youth Care, and Faye Hamilton, an associate professor from the Department of Social Work at MacEwan University. Together, we discuss their Next Step Digital Life Skills project on supporting foster youth as they transition out of care, and how building a more accessible system can help ease that process.

S5E12 - Designing Support for Youth in Transition with Dr. Isabelle Sperano and Jennifer Danko Pt. 2

Join hosts Kelsie Johntson and John Jonson as they explore the scholarly and creative activities happening at MacEwan University with a focus on how faculty influence and/or incorporate students, teaching and the larger community into their projects.

Each episode, Kelsie and John are joined by a MacEwan faculty member to dive into their scholarly projects and bring them to life. Covering topics from theatre, community-based research and advocacy to mental health, neuroscience, and everything in between. 

Created in collaboration with MacEwan’s Office of Research Services and Faculty of Fine Arts and Communications, with support from Sheena Rossiter, expert consultant, Faculty of Fine Arts and Communications.
