Cultural ties inspire career path

A move to Fort St. John to reconnect with extended family has led to a much deeper connection to her cultural roots for Jolene van Wieringen. The recent UNBC graduate found her community and calling during a practicum placement while completing her Bachelor of Social Work degree at the Peace River-Liard campus.

Supporting her journey forward

The road to her master's degree has not been straightforward. UNBC graduate student Deena Latta is grateful for the support she's received from family and mentors in her journey.
