Senior Capstone at SCAD required us to take a contemporary issue, research it, and design a well-informed interior addressing the issue. My topic selection was Adverse Childhood Experiences and the way it is mishandled in the education system. Navigating The Waters has since been developed into a trauma-sensitive youth center design for children effected by Adverse Childhood Experiences. The center will serve as a community space for youth K-12 and will specialize in academic success, mental health assistance, physical and mental health education, and initiatives for social development.
