But there comes a point where you realize that wallowing in the hardship or sorrows that come from it, is not the resolution to it. So this is my contribution to the issues I felt most touched by, or atleast where my voice feels the strongest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- \/wp:paragraph --\u003e \u003c!-- wp:paragraph --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI was hired by Partisans to be an experiential consultant on an idea for a project, I was asked to come on after attending a focus group on housing for youth exiting the child-welfare industry. I worked from home, as many people did at the time, and I researched housing typologies, other youth experiences and programs around the world with the same intentions of our own. Over time I received a lot of mixed messages like \"add more of your voice\" and \"it seems to personal\", so it began to feel like much of the same type of experience I had felt before when working with the same agency, Woodgreen Community Service. It just became sterile and I more or less ended up sweeping floors at the architecture office over time as the project faded out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nicholas Ridiculous","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59745234157649,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/5103\/2913\/files\/ChatGPTImageJul4_2026_09_10_51PM.png?v=1783213912","url":"https:\/\/underbellysociety.com\/products\/finding-home-by-nicholas-ridiculous","provider":"underbellysociety","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
