As a social determinant of health, housing can have an enormous impact on student mental health. In this webinar, we are joined by Rylan Kinnon, founder and CEO of SpacesShared, as well as Sarah Stackhouse from Georgian College, one of the SpacesShared partner institutions. SpacesShared is a home-share program that pairs students with older adults. Our guests will provide a presentation on student housing insecurity, and then explore systemic solutions to the issue, including the SpacesShared platform.
