Christina: Growing Pains
"I think the Sense Project is having growing pains too and is coming into its own and is trying out things and like oh that doesn't fit, that doesn't work, and oh that person doesn’t like me, whatever, I’m not going to like go hide in the corner and cry, like I’m actually going to find ways to like be myself, and so, in a way, it's funny how the Sense Project is like a teenager in many ways."
Marlo: Becoming An Ally
'I guess it runs in the family because I remember my grandmother. We were talking to her about would she like to go into a home because she was starting to lose certain functions, and it was getting more challenging for her and the family, and she said, “Why would I want to go in those places? They’re full of old people.”'
Introducing Christina and the Sense Project
"The Sense Project is a sexual health education project at Head & Hands. Its scope is to deliver workshops in schools and high schools in Montreal, and to also train volunteer at peer educators, so high school students, to be sexual health advocates in their school and in their communities. So that’s generally the scope of the Sense Project."
Neil: Cultural Contexts and Out of School Learning
"I think a lot of them, when they come to our program, because we create that safe environment for their after school, it makes a lot of sense that they come and they want to unload all this stuff."
Jos: Facilitating Autonomy
"Yeah, so if it’s some kind of a goofy story, then that’s cool if that’s what they want to make, and that’s what they get at the end of it. If they want to make something that’s a bit glossy or say something that they could use as an educational tool in a classroom, then they can do that also, but always it being their choice of what they want to do and how they want to use it."
