Kariann Gracey, NC’s top graduate from the class of 2020, continued to make the news after the conclusion of College’s Virtual Spring Convocation. On June 23, she was featured by Kris Dube from the Niagara Dailies who highlighted Gracey’s outstanding academic achievement in NC’s Social Service Worker program that earned her the Governor General’s Academic Medal.
The story mentions that Gracey’s interest in social service stems from her time growing up around conflict and addiction and that she was able to gain valuable experience working with people experiencing emotional and behavioural difficulties through her NC co-op placements. Gracey, who was hired by Family and Children’s Services Niagara in May, is considering the pursuit of a master’s degree in social work in the future.
