Program Spotlights

Jennifer Westoby is the new Program Coordinator who will be leading the Counselling Skills program. We are so happy to have her join the Continuing Studies team!

A bit about Jennifer; she is an experienced social worker who has spent over 25 years nurturing the well–being of children, youth, parents, and professionals. Her roles have varied, from facilitating therapeutic groups with children and youth to coordinating a pilot project for public school staff with the Dalai Lama Center for Peace and Education, to supporting a provincial network of young parent program staff with the BC Council for Families.

Jennifer is also a mother of two sons who challenge her regularly in her quest for mindfulness. She is an energetic, passionate, and curious soul who loves to help people realize hope and happiness in their lives.

If you are thinking of taking the Counselling Skills program, she is ready to answer your questions and to help you have a great experience at VCC.
