She has served as the project manager of the 2019 cycle of the First Nations/Canadian Incidence Study of Reported Child Abuse and Neglect (FN/CIS-2019) and has coordinated efforts to support the compensation of First Nations families in the context of class-action settlements and Canadian Human Rights Tribunal proceedings.
