Hi, I’m Janet…
My favourite thing about my work is connecting with folks like you who are working to create positive impact in your organizations and communities!!
I have been doing community development work for over 25 years and I love sharing stories and strengths with folks who are working to create meaningful change. I create opportunities for exploration and knowledge sharing, and work to foster cross sector collaboration.
When I am not working, I am likely walking my dog, Lola or making art in my home in east Toronto. I am so grateful for this journey.
My Approach
My practice comes from a deep commitment to inclusion and equity. As someone who learned about the not for profit sector first as a client, I know what it feels like to interact with systems that seem designed to exclude you, and I work diligently to build relationships between communities and the organizations they interact with that are mutually beneficial and centre grassroots perspectives.
In all of my work, I seek to challenge colonial practices and dismantle white supremacist culture.
