Book Description

Stories of Hope: Reflections on Resilience is an ongoing project consisting of personal essays and other narrative or artistic forms. The goal of the project is to share stories of hope in the face of adversity. The essays in this first volume are first-person accounts of living with multiple sclerosis (MS) and depression, which makes it particularly relevant to students in disability studies, health care professions, and community or human services professions. The learning assessments included in this volume are designed specifically for learners in the Occupational Therapist Assistant & Physiotherapist Assistant diploma program as well as the new degree-level disability studies minor at Conestoga College. Future iterations of the project will have different discipline-specific applications.
