Working with CARES has been both educational and life-changing. I learned many life lessons from knowledgeable scholars, community members, Elders, and most importantly, Indigenous youth whom I was blessed to meet and work with over the years. I grew as a researcher, writer, and collaborator, and continue to use the skills I’ve gained in my day-to-day work.

Working with BU CARES and the professionals who guided me has been memorable and enhancing. I learnt the reality of research and the background work necessary for successful research. The skills gained here will be used in current studies as well as future endeavours.
