Stephen Jenkinson is a culture activist, worker, author, and the creator and principal instructor of the Orphan Wisdom School.
He has Master’s degrees from Harvard University (Theology) and the University of Toronto (Social Work).
Apprenticed to a master storyteller when a young man, he has worked extensively with dying people and their families, is former programme director in a major Canadian hospital, former assistant professor in a prominent Canadian medical school.
He is the author of numerous books, including the just released “A Generations Worth: Spirit work while the crisis reigns.” These notes met the realities of COVID 19, the lockdowns and upheavals, and turned into something of a plague document. The book’s entries are dispatches from the front lines of a strange occupation undeclared. What does a life’s work mean in a time of undoing?
