DIVERSEtalks: Working with Purpose in Social Services
Moderated by Neelam Sahota, CEO, DIVERSEcity
Wednesday, January 25, 2023, 10:30–11:30 am

This panel discussion will focus on the opportunities, challenges and approaches of working in the social services sector. What impact can we have by working in non-profit organizations and social services? What are some best practices in approaching our work? And what's the role of this sector in nationbuilding in Canada? Let's explore ways that we can make a difference in the world with our work.
