What is the current state of intergenerational trauma in Indigenous communities caused by residential schools?
Libby's interest in mental health education grew substantially throughout the course of the year. She continues to make connections between the themes of mental health in teens and Indigenous advocacy.
Libby will be taking part in Dr. Knox's Indigenous Leadership course next year.
Libby's Inquiry Journal of Provocations
"In our learning of mental health, we discussed coping strategies, where I discovered that some of the coping strategies I was using weren't as healthy as I initially believed. I learned new strategies to express myself and to unwind in a healthy manner. If you don't feel well mentally, you are preoccupied and distracted which impacts learning. Learning about mental health shows us that we aren't alone in facing our problems." ~Libby
