Show Notes

Maria Hansen-Quine (’97) and her husband Sam (recipients of the 2016 Calvin and Muriel Hanson Raw Edge of Faith Award) are passionate about children and issues they face. As a school counsellor, mother of 10 (8 through adoption, 2 biological), and more recently a children’s author, Maria has dedicated her life to helping children and supporting their growth and development. In this episode, we spend some time discussing her passion and the topics of adoption, their son's battle with cancer, and the way she hopes her books can help children understand issues of racial diversity and inclusion.
