Hello,
My name is William Bourque (traditional name Black Wolf Man) and I live in Charlottetown, PE. I am from Oromocto First Nation and I am Eagle Clan from the Wolastaqiyik Nation.
I am currently pursuing a Master of Social Work Degree in Indigenous Trauma and Resiliency at the University of Toronto. I hold a bachelor's degree in psychology from Saint Thomas University and a Child and Youth Care Worker Diploma from Holland College. I have worked in Child Protection for over thirteen years now. Ten of those in different roles throughout Residential Services. I have been facilitating Trauma Informed Care Curriculum in government for over 6 years now. I am currently a Case Aid on the Indigenous Services Team. Since leaving shiftwork, I have reconnected with my culture and communities. I am appreciative of all the teachings I have received from the many different Elders who have supported me in my healing journey and hope to be able to help others heal.
I enjoy being on the Powwow trail with my family, watching my two daughters dance and my son drum. The pride they show in their culture is truly inspiring.
