Join Assist for Hand-to-Hand, as their keynote speaker Michael Bryant shares his journey facing criminal charges arising from a motor vehicle fatality, maintaining resilience and finding hope.

Michael Bryant, Canadian lawyer, former Attorney General of Ontario and author, will share insights on overcoming personal and professional challenges building on his book, 28 Seconds: A True Story of Addiction, Tragedy and Hope. Michael faced criminal charges relating to a motor vehicle fatality and effectively had to rebut a presumption of guilt given his close connection to the justice system. Enjoy a delightful dinner, signature mocktails and an opportunity to connect with colleagues in a supportive and inspirational environment. Edmonton artist Gisele Denis will create a painting at this event which will then be auctioned to raised additional funds for Assist.
