Hello, my name is Emma Griffin and I am a Graduate student in the Education program, at the University of Ottawa. I also hold two undergraduate degrees in the Social Sciences in Sociology and Psychology, that I attained through the University of New Brunswick in the year of 2015.
In the Winter of 2018, for my class in the Education of Marginalized Youth, we were required to conduct a miniature field study project that includes an interview with an individual who runs or is involved with the chosen program. For my project I have chosen to conduct my study on the Youth Justice program run out of the Wabano Centre for Aboriginal Health. To present my work and findings I have decided to create a website that will include tabs titled Home; which will give a background of the percentage of Indigenous within Correctional Service Canada, as well as a Literature Review. The "Youth Justice" tab will include an interview that I conducted with the coordinator of the "Youth Justice- Diversion and Re-integration Program," workshops and activities available to these youth, as well as a brief description of history, clientele, resources/funding, and institutional linkages. "Coming Together" will be my discussion on the linkages between my literature review and my field study. The final tab titled "References" is where you will be able to find the scholarly articles I reference as well as information that is attainable on various websites.
