Nicole Williams declares that her purpose is to “provide a creative platform where human connection, wholeness, hope, joy, resilience and vitality can be realized.” And that is what she did at Children’s Summit. Nicole ended the day with stories, drumming, and connection, and we left more inspired and more ready to get back out and do the hard work.

Hello, I'm Anna Sawatzky, Director of the SOURCE. I chose The SOURCE because I love cross system work. Humans are complex and intricate and require all systems to work together for thriving. Similarly, our social systems need to be well-coordinated and holistic to support our well-being. I love working at children’s mental health in these creative and complex system ways.
