Hello, I'm Alvin Singh (he/him), Peer Support Specialist at TMU. I began my journey by earning an Honours Psychology degree at York University and later completed an Addictions and Mental Health certificate program at Humber College. I am very excited to contribute to the growth of future TMU students. My experience from my peer work at CMHA, where I assisted individuals with substance issues, conducted psychoeducation sessions, soccer activity group for clients and facilitated groups on depression, anxiety and recovery.
My name is Olivia, I am in my final year in the Nutrition and Food program at TMU and have previously completed a degree in Psychology. Learning about anything relating to health and wellbeing is one of my primary passions. And I am excited to be working as a Health and Wellbeing Promoter that can help support the wellbeing journey of the TMU student community.
My name is Alex and I go by she/her pronouns. I am currently completing my final year of the BSW program after graduating from college with my addiction and mental health/SSW diploma as a mature student. I just gave birth to my 4th child a month ago and as a single mother of 4 I know how hard it is for single parents to manage and maintain their academics while balancing so much already. I truly believe that educational support post secondary is a neccesity and helps single parents stay enrolled in school and that access to higher education is the key to ending inter-generational poverty in our communities.
