Hi friends! Unfortunately Facebook changed their algorithms recently and if we include a link in our posts that steers someone to a site that’s not Facebook, the post doesn’t make it to your feed! This is obviously very frustrating. Please check our page regularly for updates for this reason. We want to congratulate and thank Danielle, our wonderful volunteer. She wrote an incredible article on her experiences with us. We will add it to our blog as soon as we can (which is o...n our website.) Danielle Bailey-Heelan is an undergraduate student studying Political Science in the Faculty of Arts. She was recognized with the 2020 Tavender Award, a $5,000 donor-funded award given to a scholar who has completed the objectives of the Stretch Experience and demonstrated exceptional growth and development throughout the Stretch Experience program.
