Our Project Manager, Marion Irwin-Gowran, was recently a guest on The Turnaround Project’s “The Lived Experience Podcast”, where she shared her personal journey and reflected on her nearly 25 years at Gaisce, celebrating the collective efforts and positive change achieved during her time with the organisation.
Their discussion included Marion’s experience with student-athlete scholarships, Bronx housing projects, activism and tribes, the genesis of Gaisce, pushing the needle forward, family work ethos, Generation Change and employers, system collaboration projects, progression units and skills development, embracing your potential, servitude to others, careers after conviction, and answering what is Gaisce?
Marion after recording the podcast said, “I always appreciate an opportunity to talk about our work in Gaisce – The President’s Award and people with lived experience. Everyone deserves a second chance.”
