Heather Powers, RSW, PMP
Hi! My name is Heather and I am a registered social worker, and Project Management Professional (PMP) in Ontario and British Columbia. I have spent the last 16 + years working in a variety of non-profit organizations in Canada and around the world. I have spent time in schools, community centres, churches, boardrooms, program spaces, clinical spaces, and homes. This breadth of experience allows me to bring a holistic perspective to the organizations I work with. I apply my experience and knowledge of trauma, human behaviour, community development, strategic planning and implementation, and organizational leadership to support organizations to serve their communities to the best of their ability. Let’s work together.
With the unique experience of working in both community and clinical spaces, I have learned that one cannot exist without the other. As humans, we need each other. Relationships and connections are what make life meaningful; but, we also need space as individuals to reflect, process, and learn. In Yellow Pine C&C, I bring my two worlds together. I am here to hold space for individuals as we journey together through whatever it is that life has thrown at you.
Life is messy and can be unpredictable. But, as we journey together, we can find meaning, vitality, and wholeness.
