KORI

Two employees who will working with KO over the summer months have joined the KO Research Institute (KORI) in Thunder Bay.
Under the HRSDC Summer Student Placement Program, Katherine Kakegamic and Sharon Brethour will be supporting online workshops, meeting areas and projects that KORI is working on during the summer months.
Katherine Kakegamic (Deer Lake FN band member) will be supporting the online workshops and web pages for projects including: Breast Cancer Awareness, Safer Communities and Economic Development. Katherine will be returning to Confederation College in the fall to continue her studies in mental health. 
Sharon Brethour (Fort Severn FN band member) will be coordinating and scheduling online activities and assisting with the KOTM Change Management project. Sharon will be attending Lakehead University in the fall to begin the teaching program.
We are excited to have both post-secondary students share their knowledge and develop specific skills as they contribute to these projects this summer.
