Welcome to the closing session of VTSI 2021! – the Virtual toronto Summer Institute. Jack Pearpoint reminds us to reflect on what inclusion means beyond the summit moments, reminding us that real work hapens down in the villages, with families and communities. Instead of rushing into a quick action plan, we encourage you to let your thoughts settle and recognize that the people you need to work with might not be here right now.
John O’brien guides us through a gentle journaling exercise to help you connect with the faces and relationships that matter most, and to explore your own sources of energy and strengths. This reflection is about planting seeds for future growth and meaningful action.
Remember to enjoy creative expressions and stories that celebrate our shared experiences. We are reminded that none of this work is done alone—it’s a collective journey of connection, learning, and hope. Thanks for being part of it!
