Dr. Christina Mills of Social Work Solutions Canada in Hamilton, is attending her first Federation Meeting this weekend with the Canadian Association of Social Workers (CASW) in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, as the Ontario Association of Social Workers (OASW) representative nationally.
Christina is attending alongside the OASW, CEO - Ajirioghene Evi and OASW board president - Evelyn Weger.
The meeting is fortunate to be hosted by the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia in the Preston Townships (one area where African Nova Scotians were settled, as opposed to choosing to settle), as part of the CASW's commitment to anti-racism and reconciliation.
It was especially heartwarming for Christina to witness the new feature exhibit at the Centre, "Portraits" - Stories of Black Canadian Military Service.
A fallen soldier Christina holds a special place in her heart for, Mark Anthony Graham, is from Hamilton, and was prominently featured on a banner at the exhibit.
The CASW continues to drive the profession of Social Work forward nationally. Christina thanks everyone who made this valuable weekend a reality, and she looks forward to continuing to contribute to the dialogue to strengthen the social work profession through her Board memberships provincially and nationally.
