“Equity (and liberation) is something I am constantly considering in my work—not only for women—but for all people to live and work in a culturally safe and supportive environment that provides opportunities for them to live their best life.”
Leading our Practice and Innovation team, it’s Nicola’s job to find the best ways we can support people. Her contribution to Crisis Support Training and Positive Behaviour Support has been featured in research papers around the world.
