Be the Change was a two-day conference featuring 15 speakers, presenting in four half-day sessions on truth and reconciliation, homelessness, the opioid crisis, and resistance, resilience, and recovery. The first image is the event poster. The second is one of the ads we ran on the front page of Metro Newspaper. It was an incredible conference. We even arranged for an outdoor “soup kitchen” lunch so attendees could imagine what it feels like to line up for food and eat outside, regardless of the weather. Notable speakers included Honourable Judy Darcy, Minister for Mental Health, Honourable Melanie Mark, Minister of Advanced Education, and Bif Naked, musician and motivational speaker.
