I don't mind speaking to that.
At DAWN Canada we do a lot of work with partnering organizations; we're more like a network.
Knowing that we are more in the eyes of the government, what we do is that when we get funding, we always try to partner with organizations that are doing the frontline work or on the ground working closely and aligned with the issue and the target populations. We are affiliated with different social workers within the organizations that we are affiliated with.
I am currently doing my MSW. We have done various projects with other universities that have professors within the social work field. We really try to keep that connection going so there's always that cycle of information being fed back in. We are really giving an opportunity to people who are on the front lines to have a voice in the matter.
