Our New Post-Doc! Allyson Stevenson

The Department is delighted to announce the appointment of our new Post-Doctoral Researcher, Dr. Allyson Stevenson.

Dr. Stevenson earned her PhD at the University of Saskatchewan and is currently working on a book about the history of transracial adoption in Saskatchewan entitled, Intimate Integration: Adopt Indian and Métis (AIM) in Saskatchewan and the Colonization of Indigenous Kinship. With us at Guelph, Dr. Stevenson will build on her research on the political activism of First Nations and Metis women in Saskatchewan since the 1970's to conduct a broader study of western Canadian Aboriginal women and how they developed an indigenous critique of the child welfare system.

Welcome aboard Allyson!
