Meet our Founder & CEO
BROOKLYN WHITE
Brooklyn White is a committed community developer, harnessing her passion for change since graduating from Honours Social Work in 2018. With rich experiences collaborating with diverse organizations, she's focused on driving development, fostering program innovation, and maximizing organizational effectiveness.
In July 2023, Brooklyn achieved a notable milestone, becoming the only Canadian certified in Systemic Renewal after completing her training in Caux, Switzerland.
Brooklyn's work is rooted in her interest in the transformative process of legacy building within organizations. Her exploration encompasses organizational morals, values and mindsets, all converging to shape the narrative of an organization's legacy.
Ultimately, Brooklyn’s goal is to establish a standard of practice that prioritizes accountability within the Canadian social services system, aiming to work towards prevention of harm, as well as bringing renewed hope through interventions.
Kerese Douglas is a Social Worker with a multifaceted approach stemming from the completion of her studies and experiences in 2018 from the University of the West Indies in Jamaica.
Kerese's passion for advocacy drove her to expand her horizons, which led her to Canada where she delved into understanding the systems here through the Social Services Community Worker program at NBCC.
She quickly became aware of the gaps many of our social services organizations face, as such she decided to focus on community development and how to aid in cultivating a healthy culture with organizations to minimize/eradicate organizational hurt.
In January of 2024 Kerese collaborated with Brooklyn White, as both shared the same passion and had a burning desire to help organizations align with their vision and mission with the use of the Legacy Formula.
Undoubtedly, Kerese's goal is to contribute her talents and culmination of experiences to help establish ethical accountability within the Canadian social services system and beyond.
