In a September 16 article in the Niagara Dailies, Niagara College alumna Alkiie-Babe Froman (Business Administration – International Business, 2019) comments on the issues facing urban Indigenous youth in Canada, including the housing crisis and invisible homelessness.

In the piece, Froman, who is from Six Nations Reserve, draws on her experience receiving safe housing through Niagara Regional Housing’s rent-geared-to-income program, an opportunity that changed her life. The article also mentions how Froman organized the Faceless Dolls Workshop at NC to honour the memory of missing and murdered aboriginal women and girls in Canada.
