Tasha chose to continue employment as a social worker in Alberta while studying to complete her BSW and MSW progams through the University of Victoria. Her practice interests include mental health, substance use, gender, homelessness, trauma-informed care, harm reduction, health related public policy analysis, mentorship in student support, applied ethics, and client-centred intersectional application of social determinants of health in care plans and service delivery.
The emphasis on critically reflexive anti-oppressive and decolonial approaches to social work at the University of Victoria have shaped not only my professional practice but also my commitment to lifelong learning.
