Human Services

Step into the vibrant corridors of the Human Services Unit, where each tab serves as a unique room dedicated to actualizing my mission: supporting individuals, families, and communities through collaborative education for holistic well-being and social equity.

In the first room, the resonance of my mission is palpable as we engage in the HECOL 301 Program Plan and Needs Assessment with the Sinkunia Community Development Organization. Here, collaborative education takes root in the heart of community development. Analyzing needs and strategizing programs, my group's shared efforts exemplify the commitment to holistic well-being and social equity, weaving educational initiatives into the fabric of compassionate care.

Venturing into the second room, the echoes of HECOL 315 resound—a space where counselling and helping skills shine. Through reflections and presentations, we dissect the nuances of interpersonal connections, embodying the mission to foster well-being one conversation at a time. My commitment to collaborative education is not merely theoretical but a living reality in the empathetic interactions that define this space.

In the final phase of my educational journey, I'm immersed in a practicum with Alberta Health Services, focusing on extending the Better Choices, Better Health® program to rural areas in the Edmonton Zone. Through a comprehensive literature review, I've identified unique healthcare needs in rural communities and am actively engaged in outreach efforts, including cold-calls. This hands-on experience bridges theory with practice, allowing me to collaborate with healthcare professionals to enhance access and promote well-being in underserved populations.

Finally, our exploration culminates in the Achievements room—a gallery of my certificates, awards, and scholarships. These accolades, earned through my dedication and continuous learning, stand as tangible symbols of my commitment and determination to support individuals, families, and communities. Each recognition reinforces my mission, affirming that a collective effort toward education and advocacy is instrumental in shaping a future defined by holistic well-being and social equity.
