AFOT @ JIBC
- I attended the Surrey Social Planning Advisory Committee meeting that focused upon a local grass-roots place making initiative healing wounds and creating community in a location that had been scarred by violence
- I went to the SFU Next Generation Transportation lecture: Cycling at the Crossroads: Advocacy, policy and tools for change from London, UK. I also got a balcony view of the Global Relay Gastown Grand Prix!
- I attended JIBC's Inaugural gathering for Aboriginal Focusing Oriented Therapy (AFOT) and Complex Trauma (Conference). I met a lot of great people and had some experiences I have never had before
- I also went to the Urban Land Institute's YLG Cascadia Regional Conference with attendees mostly from Vancouver, Seattle and Portland. My highlight included a tour of the remand centre that was converted to social housing on the east side - what an inspired and successful project!
