Thursday, November 27th (10: 00 – 11:30 a.m.) Social Network Mapping: Where community members will map out social connections (people and groups) we interact with on a daily basis.
Thursday, November 20th (10: 00 – 11:30 a.m.) Photovoice: Where community members will share and reflect on photos that they have taken that represent their experiences with social connection in the neighbourhood (required to register in advance with amanda.montague@carleton.ca).
Thursday, November 13th (10: 00 – 11:30 a.m.) Community Mapping: Where community members will map the places, services, and resources in the neighbourhood that support connection as well as the gaps or barriers that may contribute to isolation..

All sessions will take place at the Firehall. To register or learn more email: amanda.montague@carleton.ca.
