About Katie
Katie Robertson is the Founder and Lead Program Administrator at Crisis Communications Institute. She is also one of the organizers of a Mutual Aid Group in Edmonton that was created in response to gaps made apparent from COVID-19. In this episode we cover the topics of what is a mutual aid group, how have they had to pivot during COVID-19, what are the challenges they’ve faced, and where do they see themselves moving forward.
