Monique D'Arcy Perseverance Award - CYC
Monique D’Arcy is a graduate of the Lambton College Child and Youth Worker program (now the Child and Youth Care Program). In her time at Lambton College, Monique was the beneficiary of a number of scholarships and bursaries that helped her overcome the barriers that may have otherwise stood between her and a post-secondary education. Now that she is a successful professional in her field, Monique would like to help Lambton College CYC students overcome these same barriers.
