Robin and some of her children

Robin with her children

As a mother of six children it is my family that inspired me to achieve my learning goals. I noticed that things stay the same until you make a change in your life. At first I was really scared to ask for help, but I did it! Now I receive support through the Canucks Family Education Centre and presently I am working towards a diploma in community support work.
