Thank you Quinlin for joining us during your Sheridan College internship! Quinlin, a fourth-year Creative Writing & Publishing student, was recognized as the top work-integrated learning WIL college student for their internship with Inflamed Brain Alliance. EWO also named Quinlin as its internship college student of the year. More info HERE!
The Healing Stories program is a four-part, virtual creative writing workshop series designed for those affected by PANS PANDAS—whether as individuals with the condition, parents/caregivers, or siblings. Tailored for beginner to intermediate writers, this program helps participants capture their personal journeys with PANS PANDAS, offering a means for healing and connection, whether their story remains private or is shared with others.
Led by Quinlin, our program guide, each session introduces a different writing genre, allowing participants to explore new ways to express their experiences. Between sessions, Quinlin provides personalized editorial support through one-on-one virtual meetings, offering feedback and encouragement. By the end of the program, each participant will have crafted a Healing Story that they can feel proud of.
