This week on Unpacked we are chatting with guests Patricia Sproule and Hanna Mughal. Patricia or Patty as we know her is the President and CEO of Sproule Consulting, Executive Director with Synergy, an amazing advocate for youth in Chestermere. Hanna Mughal, University Student Research and Synergy employee and long time advocate for youth in Chestermere. We chat with Patty and Hanna about the need to listen and ask questions on youth safety and how to best serve the physical, emotional, social and mental health well being of the young people in our city. The need comes out of a response to a tragic suicide of a local youth and this group of community leaders were desperate to prevent this from happening again. Patty and Hanna share with us the process and their heart break and walk us through the survey results.  The data may be specific to Chestermere, the common thread of challenges for our teenagers affects all of our neighbourhoods. 

Unpacked is a podcast exploring life as messy people. It’s conversations with counsellors, leaders, storytellers discussing the experiences of being human.
