Students in the School of Social Work have a new tool to help them bridge the gap between social work classroom theory and day-to-day practice.
The relationship between post-secondary institutions and their host communities is the subject of a symposium of the Town and Gown Association of Ontario, in Windsor from May 12 to 14.
The symposium, entitled “Bridging our Future,” is sponsored by the City of Windsor, in partnership with the University of Windsor, St. Clair College, Tourism Windsor Essex Pelee Island and the Windsor Downtown Windsor Business Improvement Association.
A program that’s run by the School of Social Work and has a proven track record of bettering conditions in community housing neighbourhoods is perfectly positioned to help improve the troubled situation at a downtown Windsor high-rise, according to one of its administrators.
A partnership between the University of Windsor, the Windsor Essex Community Housing Corporation, Legal Assistance of Windsor, Windsor Police Service, the City of Windsor, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation and residents of social housing neighbourhoods has won recognition for the coordinator of field education programs in the School of Social Work.
